Ya and actually the one on the reeflow website shows 242W at 6'

If you want to know the actual draw on your system I have one of those fancy plug in the wall deals that tell you what you are pulling (can also calculate cost :cry:) you can borrow if you want to see what your actual usage is.

NNNnnnoooo dont EVER calculate the real cost.....

My last power outage was 6+ hrs. No backups. I was just heading out to deliver our 46g to its new home. Had to cross fingers. Everything was great when I got home :D

Thanks Dave but I don't need it. I'm substantially below the output of the generator. And as for calculating the cost, some things are better left alone. :biggrin:

Ok, Mother Nature. Bring it on! I'm ready for you.
Just went shopping this morning and bought 3x multi plug-in extension cords, a small dolly to move the generator from the garage to the sundeck, a head lamp so I don't have to hold the flashlight in my mouth while setting up the generator on the deck, 2x lanterns to light the sump room and the tank room. All I need now is to find some sort of alarm that will go off when the power goes out to wake me in the wee hours. Anybody know where to find such a thingy?

P.S. This could also go in: "The things we do for our fishy friends" thread.

See, now that you are ready you will not lose power untill the gas in the gen goes bad and it will not start when needed.

Ain't that the way though? That guy Murphy should be strung-up-and-quartered!
