Are you  talking natural gas powered generator?
regular gasoline would seem too wasteful & dependent upon supply.
It is not really an option for me as I am looking for supplemental heat
on the cheap. IT would cost me a minimum of $1500 to get PG&E too my
property now that Govenor Pete Wilson sold out the public by
decimating the PUC. Then I would be looking at quite a few $$$$ to
get a generator AND wired so power could be sold to SMUD. I realize it
can work in many areas, but in Sacramento, with our relatively low
electric rates, I doubt that it would pencil out; particularly when you
factor in cost of repairs to the generator over time.

Do you have this sort of system?? Did you get a surplus unit out of
Beale?
