So. How's that pump working?

Which one? I got three. One in the Tramco lift system, one active in
the sump, and one on standby in the sump.
You have a standby generator to go with them?

No. And last year my basement got a few inches of water when
the power went out soon after heavy, heavy rains began.
Widespread outages.
It was a pain, but since I won't insulate/finish a basement, no big
deal. No damage was done, just some cleanup.
Now nearly all the "stuff" kept here is in plastic bins.
That was the first time there was water in the basement in the 10
years I've been here, so I spent @$500 in watertight storage bins.
We're getting more rain now - supposedly a 50-year deal - but the
power has stayed on.
Except for some throw rugs and the paneling that's here, there's
nothing to get hurt. Unless the water gets high enough to get in my
furnace internals. But I don't think that can happen here, given the
lay of the land.
I've thought about a generator, but probably won't go there.

I can get you one of these at cost.
