I used my genny for an extensive outage back in August. I started the genney in September as I usually do monthly to give her a bit of exercise. Today I went out to start it and I have nothing from the panel. When I shut the unit down I always make sure the load is off and let it run for 5~10...

I have a MEP803a which has been running quite well. Mine does not have a cold-weather kit but what I did last winter was I put in two smart battery chargers (one for each battery) and a 600 watt space heater on a thermostat which kicks on below 38 degrees. This setup worked quite well in our...

Are the two batteries in the MEP-803A wired series or parallel?

I got myself a couple Wavian 20l (5.3 gallon) Nato Jerry Cans.

The guy wanted $12 each for them so I offered $20 for both and he accepted. I am going to clean them up a bit and fill with water to see if there are leaks. I suspect the one dated 1952 has a leak since its a bit oily on the bottom. If no leaks then I will finish cleaning, paint and then use...

I am looking at wiring a permanent 50amp outlet on my MEP-803A. I know the mep has overload protection but should I also have the 50amp outlet setup with a breaker/disconnect or just rely on the mep's interrupter switch/circuit?

So I bought my MEP-803A in November but have not yet put a real load on it...until today! Up until today I was exercising the unit weekly while checking fluids, etc to make sure it didn't have any issues while running. I have seen many Load banks out there and I wanted to get myself something...

I am considering getting a Generac Generator Manual Transfer Switch — 200 Amps, Model# 63350. The pics online aren't the greatest. If anyone has one and could post pics I'd really appreciate it!

I have been admiring one and was wondering what peoples thoughts are on these little guys and does anyone here have one and can give their opinion of the unit? Thanks!

I went out to start my MEP and give her a warm-up when I found this walnut near the Frequency Adjust Knob: Silly Tree Rats (aka squirrels)......

So big power outage at the Atlanta Airport...meanwhile at GovPlanet, there are over 120 MEP's of various sizes coming up for auction soon in Georgia!

I purchased a (what I would consider) very clean Libby 1993 MEP803A with 626 original hours. No reset tag and I think I figured out where this unit came from. I picked it up from Camp Dodge in Iowa and I think it was a National Guard unit which used it for their local exercises. It has HQ...

I will be taking delivery on a trailer mounted MEP-803A 10kw genney. No doubt I will be lurking about for answers once I have this in my possession!
