MEP-002 and MEP-003 external battery cables? Hey, Napa sells these battery to battery cables to make a 24VDC battery in various sizes. Most of the time they keep one in stock. What I though you were referring to was the MEP-002 and MEP-003 external battery cable - can anyone identify the...

Hey, Napa sells these battery to battery cables to make a 24VDC battery in various sizes. Most of the time they keep one in stock. What I though you were referring to was the MEP-002 and MEP-003 external battery cable - can anyone identify the cable set that goes from the external plug (below...

Does anyone know where you can buy surplus very large battery packs? I mean big, big, big batteries from submarine electric motors or missile silo batteries backups. I've tried GL for last couple years and nothing like this comes up. 200 ton gun barrels yes, whole barges yes, but a giant used...

MEP-004 auto start panel Ok, on the MEP-004 I plan to install a GSC 300 Control Panel. These are quality auto start panels for diesel generators, the wiring for glow plugs and such is not overly hard for electronic technician types. Probably to be avoided unless you are a tech or engineer. I...

M313 Homework Good input. I did see a stack of panels in one unit and was wondering what they were, must be insulation you mention. Do you think the heat and AC on the newer units would usable? I'd hate to buy something and then have to retrofit the key comfort tools. Fuel tank is good since...

Inverters and batteries - mil surplus Ok, let's try to stay on topic - some of the commentary is funny! Creativity and functionality is always valued higher than beauty. A quick web search shows several smaller inverters with NSN Numbers: NSN 6130-01-016-1856: This is a 750-watt...

A year later are you happy with the purchase? Please share the good, bad and ugly for the rest of us considering one of these. Can you properly identify the unit and find all the manuals?

Peter, yes I am looking for any information about mil transformers that would do 480 to 240 single phase. I'll dig thru the manuals. Anyone get an MEP-004 upgraded with auto start? Anyone know about the remote control panel? Now that we have the units working we need to make them as usable...

Ooops, wrong thread for my last reply. Don, let me know what to look for for the mil spec inverters, do you have any part or model numbers?

Ok, good we have similar experience. What I want to do is have the MEP-004 wired for high voltage and auto start. When one of the Xantrex or Outbacks in my case (three cottages each with battery pack, and Outbacks calls for charging, the MEP-004 starts up and charges all three separate battery...

The good, bad and ugly with the MEP-003: I ran a 3-phase 48 volt forklift charger off mine last fall, unit put out 100amps for an hour without tripping the breaker, smoked like a pig, but 100amps continuous at 208 volts is way, way more than 10kw, closer to 20kw. Breaker never went, that's the...

Thank you for the great info. Who knows about MEP-004 accessories and special features? I can see there is interconnect capability and possibly more. My interest is building a mini-grid to power three houses each about 300 feet apart. Might be similar to a small field camp where a genset would...

Hey, I also just got an MEP-004 that runs great but no power out. Can you clarify "keep the start switch on start till it starts working and wala it works"? My unit starts right up but no power out, can it be that simple? Please advise!

Recently saw an MEP-903 with an Inverter setup attached, looked interesting and made me think what other inverters has the military used and what battery packs in the field. Would greatly appreciate anyone sharing their real knowledge and real experience with DC battery banks, inverters to...

I'm looking into M313 expansible trailer as a mobile workshop, need to know what equipment options would be attractive. Also, any downsides to using these in the real world. They seem all to have AC and heat standard and often load banks, what is unclear is what other major subsystems are...

I've got this unit mastered. But this is a business for me so I can't give it away. I can make manual kits and full two wire start automated units like the picture attached. The photo shows the Dynagen Control Panel mounted for full automatic control, digital gauges as well. Basic automated...

Ok, I've got mine sorted out and running and producing power without the control panel. I can package up kits with parts and diagrams. Anyone interested in buying? While I am happy to give advice, I can't give away parts and designs. Let me know!

Yes, I have a couple. So far, so good. Just got done reworking the control systems. Will post pictures soon.

Heads up from Program Office on the MEP-903 issues 10kW APU MEP-903A 10kW Auxiliary Power Unit (APU), Revised Procedures for Inspection & Replacement of Fuel Filter: MA_10kWAPU_Fuel_Filter_RevB.pdf (Draft) The following recommended procedure supersedes the existing fuel...

I am building control cables but having trouble getting the write control cable connector ends. The post says the builder got them from Digi-key but did not list a part number. Can someone please post the P/N and source from the control cable ends? Thanks,
