[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 2635477, member: 3099"] On the generator. Get 2! I have a really good Coleman 5500 watt with the Yamaha engine. Like I said its a good one but its a gas hog. After the tornado last year I went and grabbed a 1000 watt Honda EU1000i inverter generator. Like Lurker said communication is everything and I was very radio deficient and there was no way I was plugging my flatscreen into that big generator. I ran the flat screen, uverse receiver (amazingly it still worked), the fridge, a fan and a lamp on that little sucker for about 10 hours on about 1 liter of gas. I fired up the big one for the freezer, more lamps & stuff and let the neighbor plug in his fridge occasionally to keep their food from spoiling. Had it been winter we both have gas heat so we would have been good for some time running it in short spurts. So get a small inverter gen set, they will run a lot of stuff if you use yor head about it for very very little gas. The Hondas are worth their weight in gold! [/QUOTE]
