[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm wondering this, reading all of your responses in the snowstorm prepping topic. You can get a portable, gasoline generator for about $500 at Costco that, at the very least, can power the refrigerator, some lights, electronics, and a space heater or two. If you spend around $1500 (for everything) you can have a large portable generator and an electrician install an outlet and switch to plug it directly into your breaker panel. This becomes (almost) a whole-house generator. For $5,000, you can have a natural gas or diesel one that activates and switches over automatically.[/quote] Because I don't have the $500 right now. Oh well.[/quote] I have a spot outside for the natural gas generator and it is where the line comes into the house. Why don't we have one? DH won't allow it. He is quibbling now about paying people to shovel a roof, deck, etc. Back in Snowmageddon we didn't have a driveway plow service. I am sick of this. We can easily afford the generator. [/quote]
