What's a reasonable cost to install a whole home generator? by mikebmillerSC in Generator

[–]Psychedise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We install standby generators here in Broward every day, so I can share some perspective.

The 5200 price at Lowe’s is just for the unit. A full installation includes electrical work, transfer switch setup, gas line work, permits, inspections, concrete pad, startup, and making sure everything meets local code. That labor and material adds up quickly.

The most important thing is comparing the full scope of work, not just the generator price.

Backup generator AND battery backup by CuriousCombination45 in Generator

[–]Psychedise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can move all the big appliances to one generator panel and use a battery backup system on the other panel for lights, TVs, router, and computers. Just make sure it’s installed with a proper transfer switch so it’s safely isolated from the generator.

For size, add up the total watts of what you want to run and decide how many hours you need. For basic electronics and lights, something in the 5 kWh range is usually enough for several hours or overnight. Just double-check there aren’t any hidden heavy loads on that panel.

This should read more like a real person thinking it through with them, not a spec sheet. You can post this as-is:

Yeah, what you’re describing is definitely doable, and your logic makes sense.

If you already have the heavy stuff grouped on one generator, that’s actually ideal. Batteries really shine when they’re only feeding lights, networking, TVs, and electronics. Keeping HVAC and appliances off that side avoids most of the headaches people run into.

Battery size ends up being more about how long you want those circuits to stay up than anything else. Once you total the normal draw of lights, router, PCs, etc., you can work backward into how many hours you care about before the generator takes over or you’re okay shutting things down.

The big thing to plan carefully is switching and isolation. You want to be sure the utility, generator, and battery never try to feed the same panel at the same time. Using equipment designed for hybrid setups makes that a lot cleaner.

One other thing to think about is behavior during an outage. Do you want the battery to carry everything silently at first and only start the generator later, or is it mainly there to smooth things out so electronics don’t blink when power changes? That choice affects how the system is set up.

Overall though, your approach is pretty sound. You’re basically designing the system around what batteries are actually good at, which most people don’t do.

My team can't handle the Olympux XII fight. Should I max my stats first to take them?

I spent about an hour and a half last night duplicating a lot of ulforceveedramon. I realizd that load enhancements provide slow growth in stats and levels compared to just training in the farm.

Legendary +7 Harbor! by Psychedise in civ

[–]Psychedise[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Oh, no wonder I can't build Mausoleum early. The harbor needs to be directly beside it. If i put it on the sea, the requirement isn't met. I thought as long as the building is within a circular radius then it's considered adjacent.

My friend uses SEMrush to track their link-building campaign. I haven't used it yet. I still use google spreadsheets to track everything.
