glad we had a generator

We have a big house with two apartments. Before the rollover, I tested our generator on one of them, but when trying to run the heavy loads of both, I got some instability.

So today, at about 9:00 this morning, I decided to exercise the generator running both sectors of the house.

At about 9:45, my neighbor called me up and asked if I knew what caused the power outage...as it turned out, we were in the middle of a little local outage and since we were off the grid testing our new toy, we didn't even notice.

I am a preparer (microdoomer) but just for the record let it be noted that this outage was caused by a truck that hit a power pole...
