These can be purchased from Amazon or eBay via numerous different sellers. I received mine a few days ago and offer this advice to anyone wishing to purchase one... First of all, it comes in a pretty box. However, whilst simple to understand, the English translations are borderline hilarious! It comes in three parts (solar base, tower/nacelle assembly, blades/hub assembly) and is easily assembled, although the axle hole in the hub was very tight and required a lot of pressure to fit to the shaft. The instructions say not to disassemble the nacelle- fitting the blades with pressure actually caused the nacelle cover to separate from the nacelle housing- no damage- it's just where the two mouldings join together using locator pins. Inside the nacelle is a crown/pinion gear- the turbine is actually driven from the base unit. The nacelle shaft also contains 2 very small bearings- proper metal ones! Be careful not to lose those- there should be two supporting the hub shaft. Also, be careful not to twist the nacelle from the tower, as it can come loose with pressure and has a very flimsy locator lug. Any relocation causes the crown gear to either scrape or lose drive from the pinion completely. I noticed a few negative reviews said that the solar motor didn't actually turn, or only worked slowly in brilliant sunlight. On initial assembly, neither did mine- and I was very disappointed. All that happened was a rather quiet clicking from the base as the motor didn't have sufficient torque to turn. HOWEVER... I attached the included transparent bowl to the base of the unit and gave the motor/gearbox a really good, fast spin-over for a few minutes by hand (it's a very large reduction gearbox) and this appeared to loosen the cogs sufficiently to allow the unit to start turning under its own power. Alas, I now have a fully-functional solar-powered wind turbine that spins at a good speed in dull, autumnal English weather conditions! :-) This product has so much potential with a little refinement. Also, Angel Tech- please correct the spelling of your KZread channel- it looks shoddy and "Angle" doesn't do your brand image any justice.

Can you make it rotating slower?

put it in a dark place but light enough for it to spin
