Hi, great work. Do think it could power a transmission and a PMA?

Wiredup, The unit is fueled by propane, because this engine I take to fairs. It can run on any type of fuel. Thanks for you interest. Joe

GoVertical, This engine does not put out much power. The bellows can't take the pressure and start to fold when I get it over 250 degrees C.
 I have to replace the bellows with a piston to get any usable power. Thanks for you comment. Joe

Not even a stepper motor lighting up a couple dozen LEDs?
People like things that are chrome plated or light up.   :)

Nice to have you back Joe.
