Generator for your hunting cabin

Lyndon

Bronze Member
I'm an electrician, electrical inspector, and UL508 Panel builder. I collect all kinds of electrical stuff. I have 5 Generator Sets that need new homes. I don't mess with 'Junk', when I restore something, like the 23 snow cats I have owned, I pick stuff that is already in good condition and work up form there.
8KW Witte Diesel, Oilfield engine.
14.9 KW Arrow C96, Propane, Oilfield engine.
Witte 120W, 16KW Diesel.
Lister air cooled, 8.5 KW diesel.
kubota, 3 cyl, diesel 6KW.

Pictures if your serious.
 
Mikes must think alike.

I am going to need a little more info on the lister and then the diesels.

Older and simpler the prime mover the better.

Y configured windings would be nice.

Not opposed to delta if 240v

redsqwrl@athenet.net if that is easier.

I have seen his generators . it makes me wish my power wasn't so reliable.
he has a neat emergency setup in his garage that powers his home that should be featured in a magazine. I have to look at it often. I don't think he'll sell it.
