Both of the props on these are ones that I have made myself. I live just north of  Haswell, Colorado which is a good place since the wind always blows. Within the next six months I hope to have a model 39 and a model 37 restored. I hope to find a model 36 for a future project.

32 volt unit. Ray Bronk, Hoquiam, WA This 32 volt control unit is in an old battery shack near Manning, Alberta. The tower is still there, the generator unit is missing. I was however able to buy the governor and 10 foot prop from a neighbour. George Greenhough, Alberta, Canada

This is a model 611 6 volt Wincharger made in Sioux City, Iowa. It was made for Wards so it has the Airline name on it. The unit is all original and works quit well. Here you can see it charging 10 amps. It originally came from Cheyenne Wyoming. Steve Owens, Newton, Iowa
This is a close-up of the tail of the Wincharger above by Steve Owens. This is a scaled down model of a wincharger W200-12 that I hand made from scratch back in 1990. It's made of metal an has a real working governor and wood prop.
