    Yup :)

    You could also have an elec-chicken wire up a transfer switch to hook up a regular generator into the house.

    Could always make a danger noodle which is far from advised!

    I think in my time the longest I’ve been without power was about 10 hours and I was asleep for eight hours of it

    An important point :rolleyes:

    My Generac is a real bastard.
    It'll start in the end, at which point your arm is ready to fall off.
    Big, heavy Briggs engine to turn over.
    Shoulda got electric start, but that adds weight.

    My Wen started with one pull this morning... I could hardly believe it :eek:
