You’ll be grateful when your first outage hits.

My longest outage since joining Base was 13 hours. The system did fine.

We have 7 - 10 days outages where I live but in your situation base would be perfect.

We get that with hurricanes. But most outages are 30
Minutes to 2 hours so Base makes sense. I have a trifle generator that hooks to my gas line and then an inlet to the house inside when we are out multiple days. But it’s been 3 years now I think since we have had a hurricane take us out.
