produces 110-volt current '■
The Kohler Automatic Power and L ight Plant r-oduces
standard 110-volt electricity, and therefore allow % you to
use the same standard electric light bulbs and appliances
used in cities. These appliances are available everywhere
and cost less than those of lower voltage.
Coupled with this advantage of the Kohler Automatic is
the feature of “no storage batteries.” This does away with
the trouble and expense of maintaining a large bank of
glass-cell storage batteries. The only battery used with
the Kohler Automatic is a small, automobile-type, for
starting the engine.
Thus the Kohler Automatic gives you all the advantages |
of city electricity with the same convenience—simply i
turn any button on the circuit and you have electricity
for power Gr light. Send for illustrated booklet. Come in
and see the plant in operation. ^
