Since we know you can't depend upon FEMA, depend upon yourself. Be ready.

  1. I just purchased one, there is a Tri-fuel version. Seems to work fine, not too noisy.

  2. Tri-fuel ? What's the 3rd one? Having multiple fuel sources is a great set of options....

  3. I have one of these, and it is excellent. It was the only generator on the market that had enough power and a true enough sine wave to run the charger on my Polaris Kinetic side-by-side. It is very heavy, though.

  4. I had a similar generator when we lived in the woods in Pennsylvania. It certainly proved its worth virtually every time the wind blew, knocked down trees and we lost power. The worst loss was Hurricane Sandy where we went 14 days without electricity. If you do get one, be sure to have an electrician wire a separate box so you can easily turn off the regular circuits and transfer to power coming into the house.

    1. It's a transfer switch of which you speak. Required in many locations, which means a permit and inspection are generally also required and most electricians won't bootleg an installation in order to protect their contractor's license.

  5. Just put a Harris sign in front of your yard, people will PAY you to take them off of their hands. FEMA will lavish you with gifts.

  6. Buy one before the Trump tariffs kick in.
