As I don't need heat or A/C, $7-8k for one of the comercialy
availalble units jurts.

A belt driven A/C compressor and 60amp alt would dot it.

Is there a usable small non-reciprocating motor/engine/

Really hate sitting on ANOTHER running piston engine.

thanks

Need to save up for a spell checker

The main engine is supposed to be off when you are running the APU,
otherwise there is no point to an APU. I've heard of folks building
their own APU with a regular small 5-10 hp Hatz diesel engine and truck
alternator, A/C compressor optional.

If you really want a non-piston APU, your only marginally practical
option is a used aircraft turbine APU, but those are still expensive,
you need to know a lot about them to build a practical setup, and they
are probably more effective HP than you need for a truck APU.
