Down here we’re supposed to be getting winds by tomorrow night…but I also like to go a day early so I can avoid traffic jams ….and school is canceled so might as well
RIGHT!!!! Always do what you can WHEN you can so you will not be in a rush or a panic.

It can't run the whole house, but it can run several things. We have to flip breakers on and off. We also have septic, so we need electricity to flush the toilet and run water.
Does it plug into your breaker box? I have seen those too, but you have to have a special hook up for that.
I forget how it works, honestly, lol. My husband set it up.
LOL!!!!

We have a small generator with 2 outlets. My bro….the hurricane expert 😋….had his panel wired so he can run the whole house on a bigger generator. We haven’t yet had an emergency that required we fire it up at the house. It’s good for electric airplane recharging at the flying field, tho!!!

We have a small one that we got in case Y2k got messy. It didn't, but we lost power for 10 days in 2008 when we had an ice storm. It came in handy.
We loose power a lot for some unknown reason, even when there insn’t a storm or bad weather. The longest was when Hurricane Isabel hit and we lost it for 15 days. It was terrible this summer we lost it 3 times in July and we all had COVID and it was miserable.HOW HORRIBLE.
It was cause it was about 90+
