That’s awesome. That’s a very large array! 💪😎
With the sunshine in Hawaii, you are definitely set for electricity!🤗☺️

Sort:  

It's a hefty system for sure, and it usually keeps things humming along great, but days that are all rain and dense clouds still kick its ass from time to time, We still need to get another functional generator as a backup. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

November and December are rainy and cloudy up here. I have a large propane/gas generator for those days!👍😇😎

I imagine so indeed! That's the way to go! Those are excellent! I used one for a while years ago when I was caretaking a property. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Much nicer than the gasoline generators, they produce a little less power than gasoline, but I’ve noticed the generator seems to run smoother on propane!😊

That's what I remember from the propane-powered generator that I used, it ran quite smoothly indeed! I'd love another one of those! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

They make an awesome backup, my friend…. For those cloudy days!😎

Indeedy. I should mention the idea to the community leadership council, as it would be a solid investment. One question, though, the one that I used years ago was connected to quite a large propane tank that had propane delivers, which would not be possible here, so do you know if there are models which would work with the small 5-gallon canisters? 😁🙏💚✨🤙

I have a 12,000 watt Westinghouse Propane/ gasoline generator that runs off small propane tanks. I keep several on hand, and can take them to town to be refilled.
I found it on Amazon, I believe it was just over $1,000 I’m sure it had gone up in price like everything else Lol😇
It’s a very good generator!👍
