Title: Anyone have any info on Harbor Freights 7 kw Gen Head Item No.45416
Post by: Gregmm on January 28, 2006, 04:08:19 PM

Does any one use this head or have any info on it. I am thinking it could be a good backup unit if the ST head goes down. You can buy one for $289.00 shipped. it only has a 1" shaft so does it come with a set of  Micky Mouse ears or what.  ???
Thanks Greg  ;D

Well it is a 3600 rpm head so it will need different pulleys to run and the cost is about the same as an ST5 so I don't see what you would gain.

2 kw more and no shipping. It would be a good extra unit to have if it is any good.

Where do you see the $289 price? Shows up as $379 for me. I do have a current 20% coupon, though. Pairing it up with one of the cheap 6hp Robins might make a decent ~3kW short-term system while I figure out the logistics of the Listeroid.
