    Yeah I know it’s not right, hopefully if we ever move I can get a generator and transfer switch and have it the right way.

    Have a generator -- a guy like me, naturally I have 3 or 4 kicking around, between old and really old.
    Have a working generator, well ... :anonymous:

    It was! It's a 2012 I bought in 2013. Got a good deal on it since it was a leftover from the previous year.

    I have never been too fast to name animals, you need to live with them awhile to see what name suits them.

    When I had my 2,300 watt running, I also had a suicide cord however, it was because I couldn’t find the right input plug. But, the difference in mine is I made a separate circuit in the house with 3 outlets. so could run things and still know when the power came back on. No way would it hurt someone working on the lines. At some point I will replace the inlet receptacle with a male or else completely remove the wiring..

    Apparently I can use the 1500 watt inverter in the Highlander to power stuff. I assumed it was a 400 watt.

    Looks like my setup, except I don't have the load meter.
    Generator is 5500 running and 8500 surge.

    The generator inlet and interlock like the one Mike posted a picture of can be bought at geninterlock.com for relatively cheap and you’ll be code legal in no time.

    Yeah I understood the necessity to cut off power where it comes in, I just overlooked the obvious hazard of a hot male plug end lol. If I did this, I'd be the only one who would touch it in my family but it's still a hazard to keep in mind for sure.

    I’ve bought a few different generator setups from them over the last few years and they’ve worked well. I’m sure there are other companies that are just as good I’m just too busy to find them lol
