can’t pull the trigger on a whole home


i couldn't do it either knowing i could comfortably ride through a outage that rarely happens with something i don't have to buy again if i move houses and i don't need to run literally everything in my house in the short time, why spend like 10k on something that might run at most a week for something that happens so rarely?

Yea same here. Quote was around 14k. I grew up on a 5000 watt generator and a fan in the window. I ended up building my own natural gas generator from scratch. 12000 running watts and can run my whole house for less than $3500. Looking back, I probably would have been fine buying one a little smaller
