Shouldn't that be in desert camouflage if you are in NV?

I think the green color is appropriate considering he's from Lost Wages Nevada. Big Grin

desert storm ran them into the ground.

I can just imagine the cost per kilowatt out of that thing, but when you need those high volume sump pumps running because the power failed....

You do get floods out there, right? Big Grin

I restored a WWII version of that same power unit. It was also 30KW and had a Jeep engine for power. I'll have to see if I can track down some pics.

This one has a White Hercules Diesel 6cyl.
its been rebuilt and runs super with 236 hrs since rebuild.
and I don't have and power outages here we were trying to buy 2 of these a 30 kw and a 15 kw,
the 15 went much higher and and we ended with the 30 only.
very under rated by mil. we think it will put out about 40 to 45 kw //// cost is about 2.8 gal per hr. were told
I will get some pics up for you later.
