Anyone know of any 15kw motors in your stash or in a car?  
I’m afraid to look it up. 🙂 I think I had 8 or even more on the pallet. I put one in a car that was dropped off here. I sold one to a Gem guy down South. Gave one to evaluate in an Anvil over a year ago ??? ☹  
Only have 3 on the shelf.  
No way to run a business. Oh wait, it’s more of a fun hobby. I guess I can justify giving away the store. I’m not complaining, but I would like to dump the rest and put this chapter to bed.

Ps. Not the Pmacs, Glad to have them spread around.

Works great in an E6. You can push 25kw through the 5kw motor. They are animals. But not for long, with temperature limitation. The 15kw motor is rated 30 minutes. IIRC.

As long as we are talking motors, I found another Kinetek used motor. Same as the 8kw kit motors except conservatively labeled 7 or 7.5kh. I’d need to look. I was going to clean it up to sell, but I’ll dump it and save myself the work. Remember, it’s brushless, so a little rust didn’t hurt it. If any interest, I’ll get

One of those 15kw motors found it’s way out to your WCoast warehouse.  
I think it hitched a ride with George.

I should go get a look at it to see how it’s doing.
