The 3kw is laser ouput and they are not that efficient, plus there are the chiller units, CNc bit, table etc, the laser bits and all the ancillaries like sheet loading, crane, bed changing etc.

OK I know these are not needed for a small operation but at 300K a pop for a laser you DO WANT all the bells and whistles.
