I'd like to see some performance maps under a variety of wind conditions. He seems to have built one that matches it's natural frequency with that of excitation provided by his fan. If you have wind that isn't hitting a natural frequency then it's very probable this thing produces almost no power - even if the wind is faster than that of a natural frequency (of which there can be many).
