[QUOTE="OK Corgi Rancher, post: 3862549, member: 45773"] I have a Generac portable that's rated for 8.5k continuous and 10k startup (I think...maybe only 9.5k). I'm just about ready to add a manual transfer switch/lockout on my panel. All I need to do is install the outlet on the outside wall and run about 8' of wire to it. Connect it to the panel and I'll be ready to go if needed. It's gas only. I wanted one that would run on propane and gas but the only one I could find, a Westinghouse, didn't have really good reviews...mostly related to poor customer service. The big hang up was finding a portable that has low distortion so it would be safe for all the electronics in the house. An inverter generator would do, but the models I could afford were only in the 3.5K range or less and were very expensive. I found the Generac portable at Costco for a very reasonable price and delivery was free. [ATTACH type="full"]304988[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
