No generator yet, but I hope to remedy that within the next week or so. I've been looking at the inverter type units in the 3500 watt range that won't cost an arm and a leg.

I own a generac wheelhouse 5500 that I did the propane/nat gas modification to and I also have a Yamaha 3000 inverter genset that is pretty awesome and very quiet. One of those and a 100lb LP cylinder would probably cover you.


There is also solar..? My next house is going to have an inverter/battery setup for lights out scenarios..

My recent power outage trumps yours......

Our neighborhood here in northeast Longview was without power from about 2pm on Wed. 5/8, thru Sat. 5/11, at 8:40pm (almost 77 hours) due to a severe storm with winds that were estimated to have peaked at 90mph. The storm knocked over quite a few large trees a few blocks south of us which took down several power poles carrying the line which feeds our area. Lots of similar damage all over north Longview. At one point there were 25K-30k electric customers in Longview without power. NWS said there was no tornado, just straight line winds, but I distinctly heard the freight train sound typically associated with a tornado as I was looking out of my garage at the heavy rain and wind.

Fortunately, we dodged a bullet and had no damage to our home (or the immediate neighborhood). It wasn't fun, but at least the temperatures were mild so we didn't need the heat or air, but we were in the dark and lost everything in the fridge/freezer.

Needless to say, I've been looking at generators.

power blip... Link radio off... again.....

Is this a Motorola CDM radio Jay? I'm not sure exactly how you've got everything wired, but could you possibly configure the radio for ignition sense and wire it into the primary 12v source? That way, as long as power is applied the radio will theoretically stay on.
