Daniel, I was unaware that there were a series of them. It was late at night and I was browsing and saw it and put a low bid on it and went to sleep and in the morning I had lucked out and got it.

It's size is just something to behold and its a great little runner and after making the video, of course I had to whilst away some hours mucking around with it.

I'm on the hunt to add more now that I know that there are more!

My eldest Grandson would be over the moon to get a couple of these in his Christmas stocking and I'd like to put a few away for my new youngest Grandson :)

I take it that OKMO is Jin selling under another name?

Yes, that is my take on it, just Jin offerings under a different brand, but I could most certainly be wrong about that.

There are the ten engines in the J06 series that I know of, and there is also the J01, J02, J03 and J07 ..... don't know what happened to the J04 & J05, only know I have yet to see one on offer.

They typically try to sell any of these little Stirling engines with a "full price" up around $100 or a bit less, but the ones I've managed to get have sold for less than half of that, with a couple coming in at less than a quarter. I'm not sure all the models are still being listed, but do a search and find what you can.
