I wouldn't worry if it's an inverter generator. They usually run 3-5% THD. A conventional generator can be advertised as "less than 25% THD". It's a big difference. Some don't worry about it, but I...

Within reason, probably not nearly as much as many people think it does. Would I prefer lowed THD? Sure, but not for multiples the cost.

Yes, one cord at a time. Each does the same thing depending on what plug-ins your generator offers. Yes, turn off the 240 breakers, it won't provide enough power if you have a 120 generator. These...

This sounds like a neat solution. You only use either the receptacle combiner or the RV to L14-30R Adapter Cord right? Not both at the same time. I'm also assuming that you use a 30A breaker and...

not really more expensive. Inverters are more expensive generators. If you wan to run the house you need more power but if you don’t get inverter generator they are cheaper. Slick deals had a...

Paralleling is good for scalability BUT will NEVER provide 240V, just to be clear.

"keeping your food cold" is a priority, since letting it warm up would mean it'll go bad relatively quickly. Around here, most complaints on power outages have to do with people having to trash...

In my opinion - that is the right plan. You will definitely need the extra power when using for a house backup. Instead of keeping 2 units - this is the choice I would make, too. Though - just...

All of the generators have this issue (granted most don't have an inverter). None should be left out (even if they still work). It is an electrical hazard.

Only issue I have with this one is not weather-proofed at all. The electronics are exposed. Damp outdoor air over time alone may cause premature failure. Meanwhile my ancient Winco has been...
