[QUOTE="golddigger14s, post: 4058481, member: 43617"] I have a 6500w generator but I haven't used it yet since my power has never been out long enough. The main reason I have it is for the food in the fridge. I have a ton of non-electric cooking devices grills/camping stoves etc so cooking is not an issue. In Wintertime I have blankets and sleeping bags. Summertime I only worry about a lack of AC. I also have some small solar panels that will take care of my phones, light devices, and CPAP. I also have a pantry full of freeze-dried food that requires no refrigeration. So I can survive for quite a while without electricity. I think 6 hours has been my max here in OK, I did one week in the winter in WA. BTW my generator is dual fuel propane/gas. Propane runs a bit less efficiently but propane never goes stale/bad.
