USPs can be a great saver for the home office, especially if your business depends on it, but I've discovered it can be an issue when it comes to the general household... at least that's the case according to downtown Churchill expertise.

Unfortunately with the current power usage and climate change (I'm not referring to those occasional/unpredictable extremes like storms etc, and not the global "climate change" ideology), blackouts/brownouts are becoming more frequent and lasting much longer.  

I've found that my wired in 7K gen, can accommodate my daily needs without having to concentrate (and supply power) to individual appliances.  I trip the workshop breaker (2bsure, 2bsure)... though I have to provide extension power to the shop fridge...  not that the temperature for 1 or 2 days is an issue, it's the bloody cleanup after it defrosts. Hmm, maybe a better fridge?  
The household climate control is also a no-no during the outage as is the spa... but they are luxuries than can easily be tolerated for a short period... and none of that affect the temperature of casks of red.

Maybe a review of a home gen might not go astray.

If your first cut is too short... Take the second cut from the longer end... LBD
