I know this is an old post but these are still relatively cheap at $800 on Amazon. I am currently remodeling my home and had plans for a 24kv Generac whole home. After going through the city...

This is really like the awkward middle spot for generators anyway. It's just big enough to run a 4-5 ton A/C unit for the whole house. But running much else is going to run it pretty close to the...

A well pump should be able to be run off of pretty much any generator that is sized to do 240v, generally starting around 6kw. Well pumps don't typically run over 2.5kw of load, often less, and with...

I always see a comment like this, but no one ever chimes in with any examples of having electronics fried by a generator

Just my two cents, but my big win for this model on sale is the 220/240V capability. I can do without most 220/240 appliances in my home, except for my well pump. This might be overkill for an...

Your use case is great for this generator. We are making similar points, not so much point, counter point. Short term runs of say 36 hours are handled with three 5 gallon jugs of gasoline, but more...

Just a counter point. If I am without power long enough to pull out a generator, I'm using it for more than a couple thousand watts. Around here, we use gas for things like the lawn mower, so it...

Agree, I had a big thirsty generator, and when running with cords everywhere, you realize how little energy you actually use vs gas the thing drinks. Something like a Honda Eu2000i is a sweet setup,...

This is a good deal, but having a gen that does propane and gas I don't think I'd ever get one that can't run off propane. Not having to worry about stale gas is just so much less maintenance. Just...

If the THD is high many consumer UPS devices will go to battery only and not charge. You would need a more expensive online dual conversion UPS.

Using the 50A plug is the ideal setup, that is all you need. Get the proper cord and plug it into your emergency panel, which is what it sounds like you have. No need to do anything else
