A couple of years ago, a heat wave knocked out the power on our block for 48 hours. This posed two challenges: how to keep the food in the fridge fresh and (more importantly) how to power the TV and TiVo. In the end, I hooked up a portable generator to the TV and taped the fridge shut!
After that, I did some research and bought this unit. It’s just what I needed. Literally everything I needed to hook this up next to the breaker box was provided and once I’d read the (slightly confusing) instructions a couple of times I had it installed and tested in about an hour.
The power meters are a really good feature. My generator isn’t nearly big enough to power the whole house, so the meters allow me to gradually turn on individual circuits without overloading the generator.
Of course, we haven’t had an outage longer than ten minutes since, but it’s reassuring to know I’m ready when it does happen again.
