And then the power never goes out again!

Bought a standby like 10 years ago now, power went out once for 4 hours once since then. We used to lose power every other storm + during thunder storms in the summer

Nah. Pretty consistent, we lose power several times a year. Eversource is good about getting it back but still we could be out for an indefinite number of days. Time to get the generator and one that my wife doesn't have to know how to use.

Haha. That was why we went to the standby, did all the work ourselves so the only real cost was the plumber for the propane and the generator itself
