Great when they work, and are ready on standby

Had a microburst tornado roll through an adjacent town and the southern tip of mine earlier tonight. Total mess, both towns are down... trees down everywhere, roof collapses, folks stuck.

802 is humming away while I make dinner.

Power went down about 450 last night, and came up at 8A this morning. 802 never missed a beat.

We had a brief power outage glitch that only lasted a minute or so a few days ago. I was getting ready to go out and start the generator at house and utility power suddenly came back on. In some ways I was disappointed power came back on so soon... lol

Regardless, it's definitely reassuring knowing you can be your own Power Station when utility power fails in time of need.

Glad things weren't destructive on your end!

Love that. I've had my 802 for almost 2 years now and not one power failure. It's like the old saying...if you have a spare tire you will never have a flat. I do run mine monthly with a 50 to 75% load for a 1/2 hour. Every time we have a storm roll through, I secretly hope for an outage. I'm set up for extended running with the aux pump drawing from my fuel oil tank. That pretty much guarantees I will never have a power failure. Glad you escaped any damage!

I got mine in NOS/uncirculated condition (never even had fuel in it). I'm around 93 hours over 5-6 years of owning this particular one.

There are few things sweeter than listening to the background hum of a 800 mep series generator in a power failure. Looking at your full woodshed is close to.
