Best tip ever today.

[ButlerFrank]

Had a customer give me a whole house generator today. The only thing wrong with it is the metal case is rusted at the bottom. Apparently a sprinkler was hitting it and it rusted over time. She said her husband told her to just have the whole thing replaced. Told me there was nothing wrong with it other than the case. Just got done unloading it, I don't think I gave to worry about anyone running off with it. Bout killed us.

Yes, needed it bad on two occasions last year. 4 days the first time and 5 the second. It sucked lol

They hook up gas generators to the outhouse.

In Alabama, outhouses are gas generators

I run mine a couple times a year, was a lifesaver during a 21 day ice storm outage in 2009.

would love a natural gas version.

That's what this one is, Lee. I just need to buy a transfer panel, new case and I'll be good to go.

You guys are hilarious

Wth!? Ohh my gosh, twenty one days!

Never mind the casing, Frank. Elevate it off the ground a bit, put an aluminum shed around it and count yourself lucky.

That was some wonderful tip you got!

 

[Lee Stockwell]

Don't use ethanol gas in it.

Best tip I ever got was a stock tip 15 years ago

Yeah, I'd say that beats my generator. Hard to beat a tip that keeps on paying.

 

[Steve Lawrence]

My guys got a $200 tip couple weeks ago.

I have a 9000k watt generator. When power is out for more than a few hours, it's priceless. I don't mind the power being out. But I do mind all the food going bad in the freezer and fridge. And coffee in the morning is nice.

 

[Lee Stockwell]

I love when Jon gets a tip. If he's out wrapping up I make sure he personally goes back inside to thank them.

Home made jelly, you can't beat that.

I installed a 20kw generator a couple of years ago with an automatic transfer switch. We live in a rural area and end up being last on the list to get power restored when it is out.

It sure is nice knowing that when storms are kicking up, our power won't be out for more than 30 seconds.
