Holy Crap!  I've never purchased anything so expensive off of eBay in my life.  

I have his name, phone number and address at least

That's a lot of tires! :o

Congrats!! That's almost %35 off, isn't it? Good deal>>>

[Dawn]

Try closer to 50% off when you include the tower.

 ;)

That's a lot of tires! :o

I just consider it as a prepayment for my electric bill.

Awesome, you guys are gonna "live off the grid". Do you think you'll make enough surplus electrcity to sell it back to the power co?

(BTW, that's a new SV and a year's worth of racing!) ;) ;D

[Jeff]

Damn it.  I can't look at ebay here... give me some details.....

[Dawn]

This is a grid tie application.  I know the genny is big enough to produce enough electricity to reduce our bill significantly and we should have a credit to our account during the winter (it's more windy in the winter).  

Details

1994 Jacobs 17.5 kw wind generator, 100' Rohn tower and Mastermind inverter.  Buy it now price, $14,000.

Nice deal!!!

So are you going to erect it yourself or have it done?  What about maintenance and insurance??

[TommyG]

I'm sure Dawn will help Paul with the erection. Maintanence includes regular lube and I'm sure she has it insured for a pretty penny.


What were we talking about? :o ;) ;D

Yep, what she said!  LOL!!!

We will do most of the work ourselves.  However we will need a crane to do the final <ahem> erection.  Recommended maintenance is grease and oil once a year, but Paul would probably do it twice a year.

Insurance required by Alliant is 300,000 general liability.
