Pickup "PowerBox" Provides Portable Power
If you routinely need reliable portable power for service and repairs, check out the new PowerBox from Dynamic Power Source, New Albany, Indiana.
  The PowerBox is a combination generator and air compressor to power air tools, electric tools and even a welder. It mounts behind the cab in a pickup bed, just like a toolbox. It contains an electric-start engine and 12-volt battery, generator, compressor, 10-gal. air storage tank, and a 12 1/2-gal. fuel tank. There's also storage for tools and welding.
  The base model features a 20 hp Kohler engine, which powers a 10 kva generator, producing 8,500 watts, and two air pumps, producing a steady flow of 8.6 cubic ft. per minute. Maximum welding power from this unit is 315 amps. It comes equipped to provide both 120 and 240 single-phase power and 230-volt three-phase power, as well. It also has both 1 1/4 in. and 1 3/8 in. regulated air outlets.
  Two larger size units are available.
  Welders are optional. You can choose from stick, MIG or TIG welding kits and you can add a plasma arc cutter or an FCAW welding feeder kit.
  Prices range from $4,500 to $13,500 or more, depending on welder and compressor options and engines ordered.
