I hope these two stays safe.
[video src="https://video.nest.com/clip/f4c22ee39c194a64a816391d9f5d1c16.mp4" /]Hello, one of our very big cedar trees has a fairly large conk fungus growing from it. Looking for a qualified arborist to come take a look and give us a plan of action (which hopefully doesn’t involve taking the tree down…).
Thanks for any recommendations.Attachments:
I have a Honda 2000 watt I used when I had a travel trailer. Quiet, reliable, fuel efficient. Honda also makes a parallel kit where you can have 2- 2000 watt generators connected for larger loads. Yamaha and other companies make similar generators as well. Sometimes you can find them used on Craig’s List, but I have found they hold their value really well, so a new one may be in order. Good luck!

An update to my generator adventure. I purchased a DuroMax 12000 watt hybrid gas/propane generator. I am waiting for a quote from Pioneer for setting up a connection into the house grid.
I will keep the community updated.

I have a 4000 watt gasoline generator I bought for $250. I also bought a Generac Transfer switch for about the same price. The transfer switch is a separate breaker panel that connects the generator to your electrical panel. Min has 6 circuits and is adequate for running the tv, lights throughout the house, the refrigerator and the microwave. If you are a weekender looking for an inexpensive solution to power the basic necessities, this is the way to go. If you are handy, installing the transfer switch is pretty easy. If you are a full time resident, a propane powered setup would be most convenient. Sometimes the power can be out for days on end, so with my setup, you have to ration its use.
If going the small generator route, like a Honda, I suggest the Smarter Tools generator built by Yamaha. It is available online thru Home Depot about $300 cheaper with everything being equal.
OK, I have been doing some more research. Does anyone have experience with the DuroMax 12000 Watt 18hp Portable Hybrid Gas Propane Generator?
I know that this can wired into the main circuit and plugged in when needed. I assume I can get a local electrician to install the electrical transfer switches, etc.
Any comments?

Extension cords yes.
Hook into main panel NO.
I use an electric start generator with extension cords. The only problem is that is does not hook into the water heater, therefore after a couple of days we have cold water.
I’m sure others have ideas you may want to look into.
Do individual items have to be plugged into a portable generator or can the generator easily hook into the grid in the house? If individual then would I have to have a series of extension cords running from the house to the generator?
