are the harbor freight solar panels not good enough? I've been thinking of buying someI could run some solar if I could find some cheap panels.
Even if I'm out somewhere without generator or shore power, it will only be for a couple of days at a time. No more than the lights draw, I think the deuce batteries will hold up fine.
He'll know; but in case he doesn't understand where you're putting it, you'll be sure to let him know you want it tempered or laminated.I picked up this LG 8,000btu a/c last fall from Govdeals. I fabbed up a aluminum tray to hold the unit. I plan on getting my cousin who's in the glass business to cut me a piece of glass for a window under the a/c.
Have you checked out the air beds?Yes, I'm still working on it. It's been a slow process but I've just about got it ready enough to take a trip with.
Only thing I need is to find some mattresses for the beds and come up with a generator to run the a/c and a few lights. I've priced some materesses at the the local place and found out they cost a lot more than I thought so I'm looking for a deal there..
Sounds pretty cool but I don't see them getting very far with the military without the primary fuel being diesel. Try getting any of the fuels he listed or even straight gasoline through the military supply chain out in the field. Under ordinary conditions, none of the fuels he listed will be available but there will be plenty of diesel.Yamaha EF2000iS, while being twice the price, is the one INI Power modifies for multi-fuel. It would be interesting to see if the Champion was suitable for the same modifications.

Basically they use ether to start the engine running, retard the timing, and keep the engine running hotter (spark plug temperature of about 155-175°C, measured with a comon CHT sensor).
The US patent is public record (and conveniently online). Put on a CNG/LPG adapter and you can basically run any fuel you can find.
