hi, i´m still planning on my f&p like windmill. it´s going to be a 24V system. i want to use two 12V car batteries in series,to store the power. but bevore i get started i want to make sure that i have everything around to get it work.

i planned to build a bridge rectifier, to have the 7phase output, converted to variable dc power. depending on the strenght of the wind.

but what betterie charger will accept different dc input power becouse i dont want my new batteries to overcharge.
i hope u can help me.

It may be a good idea for you to wade through past posts, the subject has been discussed several times here. Read about why wind generators must have a load (or some braking device), read how batteries accept charge, even reading about basic electricity will help you along with your question above. It'll take you a while but it can be lots of fun.
