seems like you can find ones almost the same size as that used all over. Not many people need big ass ones like that, so they end up at big equipment auctions constantly. last year i saw 4 of the generators just like that with CAT engines. at the ritchie brothers auctions around here. some of them nearly new looking. and one completely enclosed that was with a trailer. the one that was completely enclosed was SUPER SILENT, the thing was like sound proofed , it was 12kw, and had its own small trailer. went for 8 or 9 grand. what a deal :( EDIT. now that i think about it, it had to be more than 12kw, definately more. maybe 16 or 18... |
