A good invention will last 5 years... a Great invention will need to be replaced every 6 months.
We gotta stop building stuff that will out last it's buyer. either that or get a bigger truck. (as the old joke goes)




@ Dan
BTW I got Grandma on a new stand now, (just ugly wood but you could park an Army Jeep on top of it). Complete with a built in PV holder.

I always get frustrated thinking about the 'oxidation' part of the wick build. Oxidize is just a really nonspecific verb, I hate it, it really messes me up. My simple mind wants a verb that means 'heating and applying flame to render nonconductive'.

And I need a bigger work shop, 10 x 12 just don't get it. I have a 20x20 pad in the back just waiting for a metal shed. (but I lost my job before I could get it)


Cut = .0024 per rev.
Lead screw = 64,, A= 24R/48F,,, B= no gears,,, C= 64R/20F

Do you want a 6 page owner's manual?

Outstanding! here I expected to see you standing there with an oil can like they used on rail car journals but you're all high tech with that brush setup

oops,, the vid with the brush isn't me. But no oil can anyway.

Back to basics?

Now you guys need to add a temperature probe to the wick so that you can run a thermal meter instead of voltmeter on the mods. =]

Is it about my friend's mod? If so, sorry, I don't understand what you are talking about.

Turbo:
If one of you, no problem. DIY price is 45 USD. Unfortunately shiping to the U.S. is terrible. The price of postage is 33 USD. Paypal wants more dollars.
Total price will cost about 82 dollars.
Plans WillPro are public. You can do it in the states.

if someone was to do this in the states, and are able to get them done around 30-35 id be in for one
