I hope everyone who has tanks makes it through it ok.
Hi Bill

Happy to hear that your generator carried you through. My power blinked a number of times, however I never had to start the generator. I checked my backup system out about a month ago and it worked great. Yesterday I laid out the generator, the extension cord and the power surge bar. All ready to go so that all I would have to do is start the generator and plug in the amp master and heaters. Last year when the power went off it wasn't much fun mixing the gas and oil. laying out the extension cord and finding the surge power bar IN THE DARK. This year I am ready, so bring on the storms.
