Thanks Boyst... I'm sure you threw the one word in there for my benefit LOL. The one I saw on the infomercial was a Generac and looks like they get great reviews.

Thanks everybody for the input! Lots to think about even the solar option someone mentioned.

Actually these run on your natural gas or propane and are supposed to kick in almost immediately. http://www.generac.com/for-homeowners/home-backup-power
Greetings... I saw a infomercial this morning for Generac home standby generators. I'm just curious as to what peeps that have these found to be their plus's and pitfalls (not just Generac) and if they have suggestions and tips if I decide to look into this.
Thanks!... Mike

I had a free estimate today. If I bump off the dryer and stove (I have a convection/microwave separate) it's $6500. Doubt I will do anything right away but gives me a baseline. Thanks again everybody!
Jack... WGI is just up the road from here (30 miles or less) and still draws a great crowd. Problem there is its a road course 2.3m and you don't see the cars much. BUT its a party track for sure and they have set up video screens all over so you do see the race that way. It was just voted best NASCAR track by USA Today, for what thats worth.
