  Back-up power

You could go for a 10000watt contained unit with the switch and not need to be there at all to deal with it or to enjoy it automatically going on and off with the power and not have to worry.

  Back-up power

Here in our area we just had some homes with power failures for up to four days due to ice. I think that if someone lives in a rural area that they should have a means of stand by power. I also feel that electricity needs to be used as well as directed in a manor to be easily maintained for safety for all. We have had line men injured because of home brew wiring by home owners. I have worked with electricity and will again but I do it to meet codes in the area. I do recommend about a 9500watt generator and get the auto transfer switches needed to do it right so it leaves out the human element. I would not trust my wife or children to it and I do not believe my wife would pull a switch on a manual transfer switch with out a lot of reiforcment verbally while on the phone if I was not right there. When adding these systems if they are a good system they will add value to the property and like wise they can detract if it is just another cobble job.
