On a happy note. Our power went out yesterday around noon. A transformer blew, taking one of the two large fuses on the pole before the line goes to our house. They fixed the transformer and everyone else's lights in the neighborhood but ours came back on. Given the stormy conditions and the lineman and service people that have been sent to Texas and Florida lately, you can guess about where a single house without power fell on the priority list.

I got up at 5 a.m. this morning, fired the Honda up in 3 seconds, and ran extension cords to the fridge and deep freeze plus some chargers for phones. The EV6010 ran for a solid 5 hours until AL Power showed up, took 10 minutes to replace their fuse, and the power came back.

Yeah, I'm happy to be over my generator blues. Thanks Kerry!


Thanks,
