[QUOTE="_CY_, post: 2890038, member: 7629"] about 2 1/2 weeks back in 2007 .. that made me painfully aware of need for a backup fuel source and to run the smallest possible genset for max fuel economy. when power is out all over town, gas stations cannot pump fuel. since ice storm of 2007, power has only been down no more than 1-2 days. now days I'm running a single Honda EU2000i that supports entire house with one full size frig, two deep freezers, PC and lights. the trick is to plug in ONE appliance at a time. motors typically draws much higher amps during startup, then amp load settles way down.
