I put in one of those whole house generators from Costco. We've had snowstorms here with no snowplow for 3 days. I used to use a 6500w gas generator, but 5 gallons of gas only lasts about 10 hours.
It has an auto transfer switch and runs on natural gas.
I think it's 16,000w and was the price of a big skimmer and some lights....
