Hi, I have a Kiss Energy wind generator.

I noticed another brand of wind gen that has an auto shut down and restart feature, as it is needed. Essentually shutting down when there is too much wind and restarting (say after the fridge kicks in) automatically as needed.

Kiss is non-regulated, whatever that means. The volts come in AC and is converted to DC. It does have a manual off switch but there must be a way to add an auto off/on?

The wind had been blowing here over 20knots for 2 or 3 days. I came back to the boat (even with the fridge on) and the batts showed 16.4volts. I quickly shut it down and it went to 13.2volts. I have two new 4D gel batts. I don't want to damage my $1000 bank of batts. Any suggestions?
