dont have to buy new stuff-- used works well and is quite a lot less pricey.....if you live on anchor, you NEED renewable energy or just use diesel or gas engine all the time....i prefer solar and wind, meself-is so much more practical and so much less expensive than using diesel at nearly 4 dollars per gallon at half gallon per hour.....
