One thing to keep in mind when surfing is that probably 95% of the information available on the net is questionable.
Most manufacturers sites are pure salesmanship - BS & blather mixed with no more facts than necessary. Small wind turbines are an excellent example of this. I was reading yesterday where Dyocore is apparently claiming to beat Betzs Law by a few hundred percent - and trying to defend their position.
Membership to forums is open to all - no way to check qualifications. Some of the stuff you read on engineering sites is scary - written by 3rd graders maybe.
Many sites love to use controversy to get clicks. So a stupid post or claim means more income.
