[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 4182332, member: 15054"] My son was out or electricity for 2 weeks when he was in Moore after a tornado. I took my 4000 watt peak 2000 watt continuous inverter over there and a deep cycle battery. When the battery got low it would shut off the unit. He had jumper cables ran under the garage door to his Ford Fiesta. Things he ran with it all off 1 plug. Refrigerator. Fish tank. Living room lights. TV and video game system. Central furnace blower. Gas furnace. He used I think it was 3/4 of a tank of fuel 10 gallon tank to keep everything working as it should. Harbor freight inverter I got in 2000 and it still works fine. I have ran chop saws, circular saws, drills and window units and my mig welder with gas. It has impressed me. You should not need electricity all day. the fridge can sit unplugged for a few hours and still be good to go. Use the power wisely and the propane should go much farther. [/QUOTE]
