Yes and only $53,000 minimum for a 50 watt model and $185,000 for 1000 watt model. As a bonus removes paint as well as rust. No need for blasting anymore.

The price will come down with time but how much time do I have left?

Merely pocket change. LOL

I think that's the Q1000 watt. It is way more expensive. That's the 50 watt price. When someone makes these affordable, I'll damn sure have one but until then, it's only a dream.

It's very intriguing, but I'd like to see what it will do on significant rust. The demonstrations shown seem to only be on pretty light surface rust and you could achieve similar results with a few minutes and steel wool.
