[QUOTE="KOPBET, post: 4057981, member: 4153"] I bought a 5550 watt portable that same year after the storm, but never needed to use it. It just sits, and sits, and sits (sheltered). Just a quarterly or so run to exercise it and test connectivity to the house (and burn gas!). It's been used for its intended purpose just one evening for an hour or two. I do store treated gasoline and try not to let it get too old. A standby permanent generator would be a huge waste of money for me. I did buy a soft start kit for the main A/C so I could run it on the generator also. [/QUOTE]
