I paid 4100 plus the usual rb fees so I am thinking a thou apiece would work

Does anyone want a brand new unused 2 cylinder cat engine at a VERY reasonable price. I bought 6 of these at rb auctions in edmonton today and only want 2 :)

Very few companies build complete components in America anymore. I rebuilt a 15 ft john deere rotary mower with oem parts , the u joints didn't seem to fit like they should and the whole thing blew up 2 days later. Rebuilt with spicer components and all is good. Nowadays you have to hunt for quality. I would gladly pay extra for American or European made parts. Bill

Hey fellas,take a look at the generator. 10kw 2 cylinder lister in an Atlas package. Looks good,what do you think it's worth?
If anyone is interested I could go look at it , located in Edmonton Ab. Bill

Now it's getting crazy. I do have my 20kw farm backup isuzu but I kind of wanted to charge with the 12 hp listeroid and solar.

Tom , The utility co. that I do a lot of work orders a 3 ton load of these batteries every 5 years and the guy said he could get me a smokin deal or he could give the 5 year old ones for free. Would they be worth a try? They were well maintained. Bill

Every one seems to agree, 48 volt ,48 volt inverter/chargers,lister /solar charging. Now batteries,deepcycle or how about 2volt cells like that are in utilitiy towers ,phone
substations and such. you know ,2 volt 1000 amp.. I really have no clue but I want a excellent system that friends and family can copy. Bill

The idea off the batteries was to balance the load,from may to sept we get up to 20 hrs of daylight so solar input is also possible. I like the 48 volt idea and will look into it.
Asking you guys for help is like buying a super computer. I checked out the magnum and think that is kind of what I had in mind.

As I know very little about power and am going to build a power plant ,maybe there is some ideas.
Here is my plan. 6/1 listeroid, 4 x 8D batteries, hd 12 volt alternator. 2 x 6000 watt inverters. Batteries should make up for motor startup and high temperary load
Is this a solid practical idea? Bill

I do not know what a petteroid is but if I have an idea of what you want I can get it from Dev at cost. I am not a dealer and don't need the money . I do however have what is called an armstrong sydelly engine with a kato 10 kw head 2 cyl air cooled.
Leave pic and model# and I will get a price. Bill
