With all your firearms and prowess with them, can't you defend a little
generator, or perhaps, "camp" near a better crowd of hillbillies?

It's not the other campers that are a worry. It's non-camping folks like yourself who wander in looking for easy pickings.



Not to worry, JohnnyRancorous...all the decent non-campers drive right
by your white-hooded, banjo-playing, spicy food hootenannies, and
besides, I already have a 17KW generator.

It's the non-decent non-campers, like yourself, who are cause for concern.

I suppose you take that 17KW with you on your shooting trips to the Shenandoah, eh?
Use it to frighten away the hordes of feral dogs and kitty cats?

The cabin has 'lectricity and running water nowadays.



But still, your contingent of gun heros share one bed. No need to
upgrade that amenity , eh?

Ol' BrokenHip FlaJim, of course, has no idea what the contents of the
cabin might be.

Yup it really only hinders people without tools.
The guy who makes up boat lift cables for me has a cutter that just
eats 3/8" SS cable.

Plus autoswitch box, base, heavy cables, rewiring, perhaps a buried gas
line of 100 feet, trenching, permits and licensed electric and gas
contractors, and you're up to $8000 to $10,000, depending upon area.

This comes with the transfer switch. Wiring and gas will be more tho.
It cost me 1500 for a buried propane tank and connection to the pool
heater (total with a tank of gas). I would not pay for the electrical
part other than materials and a $135 permit. If I was going to do
something like this, I would set it right next to my pool heater, use
the existing gas setup and wiring back to the panel is about 35'
inside the garage. I am just not sure why I would want another
generator since I have one that is still new in the box. FPL has been
real good about keeping the lights on here.
Virtually every outage we have had since Charley was within the
capabilities of my UPS units.
A lot of time we don't even know the lights are out unless we go into
another room and turn a light on.
The TV, DVRs and computers are all on UPS here.

Last I heard...sometime in May, although the guy said it could be earlier depending on weather conditions. I just asked them for a few days heads up so I can get the Legend Xcalibur from under its Navigloo shelter and down off the blocks, install battery and dig out all the accessories and extras that belong to it.

"You're trading in the Excalibur, right? Did you get a decent deal on it, hopefully?"

Reasonable. Was offered a couple grand more on a travel trailer by the Legend dealer who also sells rv's, motorcycles and snowmobiles. On trade-ins they subtract the value of your trade-in from the new item before applying the 15pef cent tax, so doubt I could,X have sold mine for more on a private sale.


"15pef cent tax, so doubt I could,X have sold mine for more on a private sale."

The master spell-checker FAILS again!

Yes we know. You installed it to keep your CPAP running in stormy
weather..


Instead of paying taxes and debts.

Yup and the idea that it would cost $10,000 to install it is
ludicrous.
