How much RPM does a standard alternator in a car need to produce any kind of useable power? I think I can get it up there travelling over 100km/h. It would only be a little, but it would add about 80-100 km between charges. Also, these turbines would only be about 4 inches tall and probably 10 inches across. Small small, but have about 4-5 of them across the roof.
I'm not an expert. I just want an excuse to have a nice truck and hippies can't bitch at me.
