Portable Wind Turbine – Kickstarter Campaign Reaches Close to Entire Goal in One Day [1]

Living in a world filled with technology, it’s pretty common to find that most people nowadays have at least one or two electronic devices. It’s also pretty common to find that a lot of people are out and about, whether it be traveling or undertaking outdoor endeavors like hiking and camping. So, what is one to do when you find yourself on a backpacking expedition or camping trip and you don’t have the amenities of say, a generator?

Janulus, a company based out of Minnesota, has been developing portable wind turbines, and their Kickstarter campaign [2] to raise money for four of their new models launched not long ago. They started out with a $50,000 goal, and within the morning of their launch had received $43,000. Apparently people think this is a great idea!
