Dundee man to face reckless electricity generating charges

Charles McKenzie is accused of building a home-made generator in his flat at
Dudhope Court

A Dundee man is to stand trial accused of "recklessly producing household
electricity" in a 14th storey flat using a home-made generator system.

So, a 12V generator, car battery and an inverter is a "dangerous transformer
assembly" and clearly illegal. I must remember that, since I have one in my
car.

Do keep up, this was aired here back in November. ;-)

The supposition then was that he had been a naughty boy and had his
electricity cut off (possibly fiddling his meter) and was running a petrol
generator (and storing petrol) in a multi storey flat. NOT the kind of
thing you'd want happening anywhere near you.

"Mr McKenzie's make-shift system is said to have involved a fuel
generator suspended from his ceiling by ropes."

Again, by that description it does sound a bit reckless...

I want to know more about his fuel generator! Sounds like a handy gadget.
