Well, after we had to evacuate the house for nearly a week while new
hardwoods were being laid, sanded and finished,we are back in the
house today just in time for Florence. At this time the biggest worry
is power outage... the storm is down to a Cat 1, but is moving so
slowly it will dump lots of rain. We're on a hill so no worries of
flooding, but power is a concern with a well. Should have pulled the
trigger on a gen, but we've briefly lost power twice in ten years, so
it hasn't been at the top of the list. Work is 10 minutes away, and we
have a huge gen, kitchen and showers so really no big deal. Plus I
have about 5 ways to cook without electricity, so we are OK.

Hope anyone in the path fairs well. I'll probably just spend my time
painting the newly remodeled parts. All new appliances next Tuesday!
Then we'll have a complete kitchen again after almost 3 months. Whew!

I've heard nothing but good about this generator from the RV crowd.

As soon as I find a buyer for my Honda 2200, I'm getting the Predator.

Thanks, but I need 240V@30A to run the well pump.

Sold the Honda today. But, Harbor Freight is out of the generator I want.
Actually, they're out of
all generators. Hope we don't lose power for too long. I think our
longest outage, in 27 years with
this company, has been for about four hours.


Costco had the 2000w Yamaha in my local store a couple weeks ago for
$5-600. Forget exact price.
