That sounds really awesome. And also really useless with only 1 of them. And, well, probably pretty useless for about all of us with >1 15kw unit, too...

Woof... I don't know if it'd work or not, but independent of that question... that's a spicy meatball. Even assuming you want the remote start capability that would give you, Kurt sells a remote start board for $500, that I can't imagine doesn't have better support than a DRS/Leonardo one that...

I'm pretty sure that's really all someone did for the one in the preheater kit. I have one laying around, unfortunately it's laying next to the rest of a removed preheater kit.

I mean, my point was, wouldn't the motor not be running deadhead? I wouldn't think the motor would sit there running, spinning the hydro pump, and then only be loaded when you want to use it. I'd assume it sits there motionless, and when you hit the "smash" button, it starts the motor & sets...

I'm not a millwright, but wouldn't the motor usually be on demand? I.E. hit the compress button, the motor starts, and the "extend" valve is engaged?

I haven't looked in a bit, but a while ago someone in the 'bay was selling takeouts, that were supposedly tested good. But they were something around a grand IIRC, and I'd definitely agree with your latter sentiment. That money should handily buy the Mecc-Alte head & Kurt's board (and I'd call...

I'm not sure if the governor controller in the 400hz is the same just adjusted, or different... either way, they suck, buy one of Kurt's. If "All you need" is the inverter... well... I got some bad news. Look up how available they are, and how much. If you wanted to do something non-standard...

I've also never seen it done, but it doesn't seem very difficult, aside from the radiator I believe the entire 'power pack' is mounted on one plate. Unbolt, lift, drop, bolt, fab a few brackets. As said, the controls are there too, but much of the controls are unnecessary for the rest of us...

I would say +1 on just using an interlock, unless you were going to get fancy with an automatic transfer switch. I looked at several options for manual switches, and didn't like the setup. I actually ended up installing a subpanel (my main panel is so old it was hard to find an interlock, plus...

On top of your house not being a load bank, you'd probably find it's mostly a very ineffective load bank... unless you go out of your way with your stove/drier/water heater/heat pump (and the last one will probably be too much to start without a soft starter, unless you have a newer variable...

Anything pre-'99 works, Ford went to metric wkth Super Duties in '99. I believe Dodge changed (to the same) in the teens sometime? Not positive when... believe GM is the lone holdout still using 8x6.5" & not 8x170mm.

F-4040-A (which I believe is the 'standard' neon yellow, but I usually search for that specifically) has "heating fuels" & "small engine fuel lines" both as "typical applications"... actually, on further looking, LP-1100 as well is listed on their site as being diesel fuel resistant. I have a...

I've never kept the military connector, so I just bring 12v bulbs (you can leave the 24v ones, but they're dim) and a 7-pin on about 6' of cable... I just bring use Wago connectors. Pull all the rubber connectors, snip the 3 you need, and hook up the Wagos. If you have a friend with an older...

008-201-9 is what you want. Same seal & inner bearing, different outer bearing (and unfortunately different cap/Bearing Buddy too) Also need new lug nuts as they come with 1/2" studs (which is good since Toyota wheels use 12mm studs), Gorilla 91188XL, or early 90s F150 or E150 lugs if you want...

I was in for a good bit of the time these trailers were... granted I was in transportation, so it's not like we needed a Humvee trailer. I don't remember ever seeing one, besides maybe generator trailers, in use around Bragg. I might have run into someone dragging trash to a trash pit in Iraq a...

Ah, then you'd want to follow Option B. If you wanna grt fancy, you could make a pigtail & leave it hanging out of the cable port, with something like a 1-pole Anderson Powerpole so you can disconnect it easily.

You're generally going to use the building ground... assuming you're going to use it hooked up to a building with its own electrical system. (And from there, assuming you're connected to the building in such a way that the normal grounding is still connected- this is usually, but not always, the...

It'd seem like if they were shill bidding (well... OK... shill bidding without seriously cheating since the auction house is also the "seller" and knows your max bids) then there'd be a decent frequency of the shill bidder (who is also the seller & the house) accidentally winning... and...

There was a lot of 2 at LEAD this week, both missing inverters, and they didn't mention engine condition or have vid of them running or trying to start. Pre-bidding ran up to $1400, it ended right around $2000. I was interested for 'pair of parts machines that probably have at least 1 running...

Aw man, he's come way down, I think he started that out at $40k. 😂
