Looks like the welder is a separate unit that is extra, the generator is only 6000 watts, and the air compressor might be overkill. I think it is too much money for what you can make use of in a conversion. A 12,000+ watt generator would be more useful at less cost. It might be handy for a mobile mechanic working out of a conversion, especially a 2 cycle mechanic (we need them cruising around in case we need them).

I may not be calculating correctly, but wouldn't 6000 watts work out at 50 amps?  If so, that sure would be enough for me.  I have always wanted a "screw pump" compressor.  Those things are almost absolutely silent and produce almost no heat--too cool, pun intended.

Then there is that $18,500 thing so I neither see one in my future nor the trailer I'd need to haul it around.  How I'd love to pull into a campground with that in tow--what are the generator operating hours again? :D

Awfully expensive. I have my Wrico 12kw already. I'll carry a wire feed welder ($200) and California 2hp air compressor ($450). Heck of a lot less money. Good Luck, TomC
