Just make sure you do the main feed to it so the blower and thermostat are still hooked up, not just to the motor...get it?

We rarely loose power. I think only a couple times in 23 years we went more than a few hours without it. I have 10 gal of water. If need more I will melt snow on the woodstove that will be heating the house.
 
I gots no jenny no more, but we have a pellet stove that runs on very little juice. They sell a battery back up for , but don't have that either. I have 2 deep cycles in the boat I can grab, an inverter, and if need be I can toss some jumper cables to the truck parked outside my front window lol. How's dat for some beereneering? lol

It's dark when I wake up either way. I will take that extra light after work -Thank You Ben Franklin. :thumbsup: I woke up like an hour early this morning. So relative to last week -2 hours early. :BangHead:
 
Interesting thing, talking about Gen sets. I now have solar power, BUT it only produces power when attached to the power grid, AKA SDGE. Well in a power outage, no solar either......UNLESS you have a Gen set to power the Solar grid and make it think it is connected to the power grid. works like a champ.
 
the longest we have been without was back a few years ago when we got the Halloween blizzard.. I think it was about 10hrs.

You have the same as ron no batteries right? In Hi I was totally off the grid, solar, wind and the battery bank and a 4k inverter, expensive but well worth the hastle.

Hi it was %35 off the purchase price, rebate actually, Ron system basically back feeds the meter and somehow sells carbon credits every year! What a sham that one is.
