Wow, what a great idea for a electricity free bilge alarm!

There outta' be a law to make engine and genset manufacturers supply
stainless exhaust elbows.  They always seem to rust out quickly and make a
mess.

Northern Lights touts itself as making "World Class Gensets" but their
stock cast iron exhaust elbow vetos that.  After the stock elbow turned to
rust I ended up welding one up from a couple of small pieces of ss pipe and
a piece of flat stock that has worked fine for over a decade.
