“It should be enough to power a refrigerator, fan, TV, and lights … basic necessities for an Iraqi household for 14 hours a day,” the Woodbridge, Va. native said.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Heck, I wouldn’t plug any of that stuff in, if i could run
one room AC instead. I’d eat room temp food, in the dark, and listen to a pocket radio, and count myself lucky.

the generator will be able to feed the 300 homes it is connected to with more than 10 amps per household.

Is that correct or did they mean 100 amps?

I’ll say it again : gen-sets are going to save the day in iraq. Main grid lines are far too easy for the terrorists to take down but neighborhood gen-sets mean independence from the grid. Ironically that’s how the overall picture is shaping up : local oases of calm in a national mess of politics, tribal and religious rivalries, al queda, iranian spies...may those oases grow and prosper...

The project, estimated to cost $355,000

About the same as 7 JDAM bombs.... a very good deal, IMO.

JDAMs definitely have their place, but if you want somebody to think like a human with an interest in stability, nothing beats a working refrigerator to get their mind moving in the right direction.
