Microcosm M91 easily powers PM Research genny
« on: August 25, 2019, 10:01:17 am »
I was running the first tank of fuel through my new engine(fantastic work, Jin) and thought I would give it some work to do. Light work for this little guy.

Bonjour Benny,
Cool, another one operating perfectly. Which number is it :+) ?
It seems that most of these engines have been bought by members of this forum  ;D ?

I like that Benny - doesn't seem to be short on power.  I wonder if the M90 would be up to the task?

Yep, a lot are headed to the forum members as Jin advertised them over here.  :)

Larry, I just don't know...I tried with my M90 and it stalled rather quickly but I was using a 3v light, where this time I used a 1.5v bulb.
My M90 doesn't seem nearly as robust as this model. It might need some fiddling.

Bonjour, Raphaël! This one is #18.
Yes, quite a few members bought these- when Jin debuted the prototype it was met with universal interest on the forum. The more I saw of his engine, the more I liked. Yours looks to run well also.

Impressed by how easy it appears to haul a load, compared to the horisontal version...

Great show Benny Thanks for sharing !!!

Aye, Jan. I might go compare specs- it almost makes me think heavier flywheels or longer stroke. Add to the seemingly stronger pull is the increased need for fuel. My m90 at 1/2 turn out almost drips fuel from the exhaust

Those M91's are a very nice looking engine.

Looks like the the M91 is turning out to be a sweet running little engine.

Hi Benny I am located near London and avery new member to the form. I was intruded to this forum by Raphael in France. The M91 looks a great engine I will send Jin an email to order one. I don't know if they are on back order or how long it will take to get to London.
The next thing will be the PM Research generator. Can you tell me where your street lamp comes from as it looks really good too

Hurric, Welcome to the forum! Another alternative to the PM research generator is these from Austria. Many of us from around the world have been very happy with them. He also sells them mounted to a wooden base with lamp post, but currently none of those on eBay... might be worth contacting him. Another bonus is the assortment of pulleys included.
