@@susanmason9467. We added a whole house Generac generator to our house ten years ago, best six thousand dollars we ever spent. We live on the East coast of Lake Michigan, when the storms come across the lake from Wisconsin the power goes out a lot. With our medical condition we can’t be without power.

We had severe thunderstorms all day yesterday and at midnight our power went out. Line crews couldn’t start working until the lightning stopped. Downed lines and critical services were worked on first. Residential issues were next in line to be fixed around 16hrs later. Without air conditioning or fans it got so hot it was impossible to sleep, so I’m kind of lethargic and a tiny bit cranky.😅

Cool backup, but that system requires that you or someone is there to switch the system over. What happens if you're out if town? You'll still lose everything. Is there a way to ensure it switches over automatically? It appears that you won't have true peace of mind if it doesnt. Still, better than no backup at all .
