22/24 lbs 55amps at 13v
uses a bosch 55a slternator with reg and amp gauge (digital)
also has a low high switch

4 stroke so no mixing

thinking of how it would compare to my 4 stroke 1kw gen connected to my iota 55amp power supply.

Dear Kevin,
Thank you for your email.
We don't have a distributor in the USA, but we have sold quite a few to your country.
The Price in Australian dollars is $990.00 plus UPS shipping approx AUD$400.00 Total in USD$1050.00 based on AUD$1.00 = USD$0.75 We also have a one off Chinese made copy for AUD$650.00 plus shipping Total with shipping USD$800.00 Photo enclosed.
Kind Regards
Heinz Schendzielorz

Guess the one pictured is $1050 shipped?

seems like the exchange rate is off , I always see austrailia prices then the US price is like 65% of that.

the small knockoff looks like my 1kw 110v generator

I think for a grand, one could pick up a cheap weed eater engine and an alternator and be in business and have a ton of cash left over.
