hihi, certainly so. Fortunately I have a 220 V 60 A line run directly
into my basement, so that gives me 13.2 kW. That sounds like enough,
technically. Financially, though, I won't run this thing 24/7. Well,
unless I would put a solar cell grid on my rooftop and a wind-turbine
into my yard, and a water turbine into my sewer line :-). Seriously,
they say a wind-turbine does about 1 kW on a windy day, so take 6
of them...
