After refusing several times just knowing it was going to come on any minute, I finally went to the stubborn suckers house 40 miles away and got him after he refused a couple of times. He was glad to see us. Hes all kinds of warm now and his color is back.
    Good on you Jason. I took my similarly same stubborn-type 72yr old MIL a portable butane stove yesterday after she had been without any heat for quite awhile. When we showed up she was in the garage with the door open trying to get warm in her running car.

      Bought a Predator 9000 over the summer and this is my first time using it. Has worked great going on two days.

              I'm going to have to look at my furnace to see if I have a plug too. It was just installed in July so hopefully it does.

                    Generac 6500, haven't lost power yet, but ready to go. It is wired into my breaker box for a back feed. Has enough power to run my whole house, minus AC, POOL and Electric Stove. Good enough for me.

                      Generac 24kw plumed into a 500gallon propane tank. I had to run it 40 hours but we have power back now.

                        Generac GP7500E. I need to get set up to where I can run things in the house without using cords. I'll have an electrician do that.

                              Champion 6875/5500 watt. Bought it last summer during hurricane scare and luckily didn’t need it. Haven’t need it yet. I’m probably going to sell it and get a bigger one after witnessing what’s going on out there.

                                Have a Northstar 13000 with Honda 20 HP and a Honda EB2500 both on standby. Big one backfires like a son of a gun so need to figure that out as it is annoying but still creates power. Just started them to make sure they got the rust off and started making my repair list at the same time.
