    My generator came today, a week early!

    Talked to some folks, They suggested putting the Genie next to the propane to keep it from freezing up....That's of course if I can get it started at 20F There's sure to be a solution as so many share the problem.

    Why bring up reading the manual at a time like the present? load balancing...I don't suppose there's any chance of mine doing that automatically? Please explain the concept, you know, so like even I can understand it.

    My generator came today, a week early!

    It's (I think) the way they rate gens here in America They don't give 100% load, only 50% SO my 7500 has a start up of 9375 (peak watts) and 7500 running watts. 7500 is it's 50% load. (That's using gasoline.) I got this info from a user question on Amazon. This answer was given by the...

    My generator came today, a week early!

    This sucker is a monster! It's designed to run with every plug in use all at the same time. (See picture of plug-ins posted above. My neighbor gave me an adapter that pug into on of my 120 slots. off that one 120 plug I can run everything electric I have. Could have gone smaller and saved on...

    Another question!! ":O} Why are genies rated at 50% load, why is 50% load considered a full load? Why would anyone make a product called Banana brittle? Why would my wife buy it? If you have any questions other than those place before us by me, save yourself some clicks and ask them here!!

    Yes manufacturer says that I should get 1 hour per gallon on propane. appox. 2 bucks per hour of use at 50 % load. people on Amazon reported up to 6 1/2 hours light use. Maybe I get a better picture of what's going on If I imagine a man walking at 4 miles per hour, then picture him dragging...

    My generator came today, a week early!

    I'm sure your right as you use exactly the same analogy I used when explaining what I didn't understand to my wife. But things got complicated for me as I used a car going up hill. The car must change gears and/or increase it's RPM. But My gen. doesn't have a transmission or at least I don't...

    My generator came today, a week early!

    I knew that Propane has trouble when temps get to low. But I didn't realize that it only took 32F to get it to act up. I think I will be looking for an out door electric blanket, or maybe just set a small fire under the tank...Kidding of course, unless someone thinks t will work? ":O}...

    Nope. So far she is just blusters and threats of things to come. We've had some rain, but the river is still down. Nothing even close to snow yet. Truth is, I can't remember ever being this excited about the weather. Sitting next to a low mountain (1700 ft.) river seems to condition things...

    My generator came today, a week early!

    i have a question about generators. I know that mine runs at 3600 RPM at all times and it runs at 60 Hrz. Now a car generates more power by running the engine at a higher RPM producing more horse power. How does a generator increase it's power out put? Ii can't run just dead out 50% full load...

    My generator came today, a week early!

    We were planing on getting her up and running Saturday.... But...I kid you not, the power went out! So two of my neighbors who have lived a life in trailers came over and we unpacked it connected to propane, connected to my trailer in under an hour. We will be powering two trailers, perhaps...

    My generator came today, a week early!

    We have more power outages here than most have...I think. In any case, we had to shift every thing out of the refer. a half dozen times last winter and twice in the summer to prevent spoiling. But that only works in low temp outages. We went a little over in power for our needs, but we have...

    The state of our nation

    Perception is the determinate. What you see is what you have. No more no less. what does it matter how much you may be loved or hated, if you remain unaware of it.? We love or hate according to how we see a thing. Everything depends on how we see our lives. I see my own as being in need of...

    That's exactly right! Your domain can be no larger nor smaller than your perception of it.

    The state of our nation

    I think there is often a moment of transition, especially but not excursively among those who are mentally active, When to go one's own way is to go away. As I was dumbfounded by their mistrust of reason, or rather their distrust of my reasoning. The whole point of reason is that anyone can...

    Totally agree Dan. What concerns me just a little bit is how are these good folks going to get thought a power outage? Voluntary dependence is still dependency...Yes? Patti just bought a generator to power us through a power outage which while you can't depend on them are rather frequent. But...

    I wonder if Amazon has produced a single piece of paper or electronic print that does not contain an add for fancy Al? It seems to be their sole obsession! As far as I'm concerned they will need to do a much better job if they want to be me for me.
