Charlie.
 I went to re-watch your video directly from youtube and searched "trio stirling engines" and discovered you are a member of a "cult"

That’s Funny Len.

 Just illuminates my lack of creativity in coming up with the title for the video. 🤠

The two burners cost almost as much as the three engines.

That's usually how it goes  :D

Thanks for sharing Charlie, they all appear to be running great  8)  A quiet but lovely sound they make together  8)

Thanks Nick.

And cheap fun. I paid less than $100 for the three engines. The two burners cost almost as much as the three engines.

Nice display, looks like you got a jar moonshine to make things in the room spin.


Len.

It is Grain Alcohol. My fuel of choice for Meths Burners. 🤠

The Moonshine is at my Ranch in the Cabin.

I purchased all three of these Stirling Cycle Engines several years ago and had not run them in more than a year.

Last week I cleaned them up and then ran them a couple times.

I really enjoyed watching the three of them running together and it inspired me to film, edit and publish this short video.
