Runs all day on a Quart of #2 Diesel. Currently on semi-permanent Loan to a Close Neighbor (close = 10 Sq Miles) and he runs his whole Outfit off it, during the summers. http://www.otherpower.com/steamengine.shtml The Other Power boys in the mountains have gensets that will run on about anything that burns...(c; http://www.otherpower.com/steamengine.shtml http://www.otherpower.com/listeraxialflux.shtml The Listeroid model. Someone with a cruising sailboat they can drag a shaft behind needs to really take a close look at the Otherpower axial alternators that make incredible power on a slow turning wind machine....converted to be run off a screw on a shaft behind their boat...or as a modified wind machine for boat use. These are just about the simplest electric machines I've ever encountered....and SO powerful!...KILOWATTS of multiphase AC to rectify into house battery boilers.... http://www.otherpower.com/otherpower_experiments.html (even the hamster model..(c;]) -- ----- Larry If a man goes way out into the woods all alone and says something, is it still wrong, even though no woman hears him? |
