Default Attention rec.boats campers ...

I was going through some storage boxes and came across a Hughes 30 amp
"Autoformer" that I used for about 3 months when we had the motorhome
in Florida. For those not familiar with these, it automatically
boosts the voltage supplied to your camper, trailer or other RV by 10%
whenever commercial power drops below 117 volts. It protects the
electrical system and appliances like microwaves and air conditioning
units from damage due to brown outs and voltage drops commonly found
at commercial campsites. When the commercial power rises above 118
volts, the unit automatically detects it and removes the 10 percent
voltage boost. It also protects against voltage spikes and detects
open grounds.

I held onto it because I thought it might be useful someday for a boat
slip, but I really don't need it anymore and decided to stick it on
eBay. This is the single stage version (10 percent boost) that
currently sells new for about $389. There is a newer version (3
stage) that has multiple boost levels and sells for just under $500.
Frankly, I don't know why you'd need multiple boosts because the
single stage does the job just fine.

Anyway, I put it on eBay with an opening bid of $175 plus $50 for
shipping. If any of you rec.boats types want it, I'll sell it to
you for $100 plus the $50 for shipping (unless you want to pick it
up). Also ... I'll only ship to US CONUS addresses. Sorry Canada.

If interested, don't delay. Once a bid is submitted on eBay, I am
obligated to sell it there. If someone wants it here and lets me
know before any bids are submitted on eBay, I will end the auction
early. Here's the eBay listing:

I'd love to have it if it was 50A. The price is right.

Everybody is sellin' something here. I'm thinking of putting my custom
CZ75 SP01 Shadow 9 mm semi auto pistol up for sale. The current model
new is $1350+. I'm trying to decide whether I really want to sell it,
and for how much. It is the most accurate and smoothest operating semi
auto I've ever handled.

Nice but unfortunately the People's Republic of Massachusetts will not
allow me to purchase it. :-)

I've never been able to figure how particular firearms get on the
"approved" or "not approved" lists. I wonder if baksheesh is involved.

Don't feel alone, Harry. I've never figured it out either.

Hey Fat Man, have you considered that the IRS field office in Baltimore might be interested in your supposed revenue relative to your unpaid tax liens?

All the best,

Whoops - hit the button too soon on the last one.

Don't want one of these, although it appears to be a damn good deal. I've been lucky so far, never
had a problem with electricity. I think I'll save the space and weight for a generator.

And, BTW, if you've got a Honda generator you're wanting to get rid of, let me know. With all the
rain we've been having, I'm thinking more and more of buying one just for the sump pump.
