Some thoughts to gnaw on, an interesting conversation, and over in the “somewhat disturbing” department…
I’ve mentioned that of late, I’ve been reconsidering electric propulsion on a bunch of levels and I recently added doing a cheap seats 12V pressure pump to our AC watermaker to try and get the the Islander into the no fossil fuel category.
Which has me on the lookout for a 12V pressure washer to cannibalize with enough oomph and flow these days.
Admittedly, our generator only uses a liter or so of gas to power the watermaker for enough time to make 20 gallons of water. Still, we run it twice a week which adds up to somewhere around 24 gallons of gas per year. What with $10-dollar gas on the horizon, that’s more than I want to spend.
So, yeah, time to find a 12V pressure washer soonish…
For anyone interested in DIYing a 12V watermaker, here’s the best I’ve come across.
Meanwhile, in the rethink department there’s what to do with my corded tools which hardly ever get used these days and what to do with the current cost of coffee. What can I say but living in interesting times can be interesting.
