What /g/enerator is going to power your technology during blackouts?
you in florida? buy a cheap one from harbor freight. unless you're going to use generator regularly the honda is overpriced. Now I'm not saying they aren't good generators. they are. very dependable and light but not best value.
I just got a solar powered battery pack
it's gonna suck major cocks if the power goes out because it takes like a full day to recharge 3000mah of the battery

Don't hurricane winds tend to destroy those?
You should put it down.

I live in the northeast us. We mostly just care about making it through winter. I have the ole '65 Ariens for a snowblower and the ole '71 Cub Cadet 100 for a plow and secondary blower. 7000W generator for the hwh, well pump, etc. Wood stove burns all winter. Hardest part is finding lead substitute if I need it and making sure both cans are filled, leaded and unleaded.

Land of the free, where you can get blown up by a pressure cooker, have all your details stolen in hack overnight & also have shit internet speeds,limited gb usage & when you download "illegal" things they send you a leter or take you to court.

I'm sorry, what country is still 1# in the number of deaths caused by islamic terrorist attacks?

Funny that I download a shit ton daily and have no limits on usage and a decent speed.
Only thing we use pressure cookers for is a decent casserole which you fat cunts cant as its not deep fried.
>>62314183
funny that I do the same shit and have no limits either and a decent speed.
what about the part you had to wait decades while america created the internet and basically your countries are shit at the internet.
>>62314174
Pretty sure France or the UK has surpassed the US
>>62314174
Not fair, your police hide all the daily terrorist attacks.

it's absolutely baffling how some americans honestly believe that they have it better than europe as a whole
>>62314218
we didnt, also most of Europe has superior speeds compared to the US

The media ruled that was straight white conservative christian males' fault. Stop being an Islamophobic bigot.

You truly are a stereotypical American .
My fucking sides.
>>62314291
you're being ironic but this hypervictimization complex that you're mocking is way more prevalent in north america than in europe, speaking as someone who has lived for a significant amount of time on both continents. somewhere along the way a lot of americans seem to have just decided that "it's annoying, and leftists do it, so it MUST happen tenfold in europe!" but i promise you, it is very much a north american phenomenon, despite what you may read on breitbart or whatever

There was not a single instance in that post where an implication was made that hypervictimization is more prevalent in Europe.

Use a proper diesel genset if you don't want to wreck your stuff.

>>62314550

That generator you posted is really fuel efficient, however its got a tiny tank and its easy to spill fuel all over it when filling it up.
That's the one I use.

You are not going to get far with that tonka toy my friend. Id be out buying a rubber dinghy and a pair of fins

Because people buying the cheapest shit in Walmart are going to end up with an inverter unit, right?

But Texas isn't part of US?

>>62315316
You fucking wish.
Texas is like a turd that sticks to your arse hair when taking a shit and wont drop.
Don't you worry people, it can all be solved. Just kill them faggots and the hurricanes shall vanish:

No I couldnt give two fucks about your shithole of a country.
Full of niggers & inbred cunts fighting over statues.
You dumb cunts havent even got any history
>>62316669
So why you talking about Texas like it's a turd. You know we were a country at one point and joined the american union out of pity.
>>62316698
Your whole country was founded by Europeans..
Texas is a shitstain full of inbred morons. The majorty of Americans I have met are ashamed to be associated with it
>>62314488
>not building your own generator
i thought this was /g/
but then again, most people here cant do shit with there hands, beside typing and jacking it
>>62316734
No it's not. Texas is probably bigger than your entire country faggot. So you met some arrogant liberal Americans that validate your indoctrinated anti-american sensibilities you want a cookie?
>>62316793
No seeing you so upset about your scummy state is enough thanks.
You off to shag one of your family tonight?
>>62316793
there are ranches and even counties bigger than some yuropoor countries, IN THE GREAT STATE OF TEXAS.
THE STARS AT NIGHT, ARE BIG AND BRIGHT! DEEP IN THE HEART OF TEXAS!
>>62314488
Or maybe you could buy a PSU that isn't total shit and not worry.
>>62316807
Texas isn't even considered deep south ya poofter. go give the based paki his reach around
>>62316784
>building your own
that would be /diy/
>>62317141
the secret is, just putting a 100W lightbulb on the generator (all the time) and be done
>>62317185
hows that work? constant load?
yes, its said that prevents rev spikes (when you take off load and the regulator takes a bit to rev it down) that otherwise would kill electronics.
PSUs should be quite tollerant, considering most of them dont come with a voltage switch nowadays
>>62314023
These cities are dirty because businesses are burdened with job killing regulations. Wealthy people would create more jobs if it weren't for the high taxes they pay. The Donald was elected to ease the rich's suffering by redistributing the lavish and wasteful money spent on the poor and giving it to the super wealthy, because only they have the moral imperative to save the country.

The storm is expected to pass in like a day, it's been moving at a pretty constant rate for the last week or so. Not every tropical cyclone is like Harvey.
>>62314023
Miami Beach is not dirty this list is bullshit nitpicking at this point. It's true that a lot of spring breakers are complete pigs and will shit up any place they go to.. But that whole place gets cleaned up every night. Especially during spring break. And any other time of the year that beach is pretty fucking attractive. Also Miami Beach is upscale as fuck. Motheffuker third world is having no working toilets or power and 4 out of your 7 kids died before the age of 4
>>62314078
Power generation is not the problem. You don't have a battery that will last you two years.
>>62314059
Gpon a shit
>>62319171
they mean dirty as in shitskins
In Pittsburgh we don't lose power that much. Biggest worry is blizzards.
For power I just have a couple UPS computer backup batteries. If we lose power I disconnect them. Gives me enough power to keep my phone and netbook charged for a pretty long while. I also have a tiny 800mAh pocket charger for my iPhone.
I would like to eventually have a solar Lithium battery set up that can power more things, by my battery lanterns work well enough.
Biggest worry is freezing without power.

The point is diesel vs gas is irrelevant if you use an inverting generator.

It's your fault education has gone down the shitter.
>>62316662
>>not coupling your car battery to a 2000w AC inverter

What the fuck are you doing nigger? You need a deep cycle battery for that shit.
>2000W

More like 4000W
>>62313239
if you have to rely on something you probably shouldn't buy hazard fraught

Literally worse than Hitler

It's emergency, you'll maybe have 10 cycles on it and car battery will live through that no problem.

I guess I could use the two stroke gas generator I have in my garage. Its noisy as all fuck though, but it will work (as long as I have gas). Although I dont remember a blackout happening for more than like 15 or 20 minutes here for as long as I've been alive. Which isn't really a good excuse to not be prepared, but 25 years without a major blackout can't just be a coincidence
>>62322722
is it really two stroke?
>>62322722
>Although I dont remember a blackout happening for more than like 15 or 20 minutes here for as long as I've been alive
Same here until Sandy knocked out power for a fucking week.

I live literally smack dab in the center of the continent in Canada. We get tornadoes sometimes I guess, and ice storms occasionally, but they really arent on the same scale as hurricanes, and a lot more localized. If a tornado rips down my street it may put out the power, but at that point I'd probably have larger things to worry about
