I used to do the 5-6000 watt genset with extension cord set up and it was needed quite often, sometimes for a week or so during ice storms and etc. It was a pain to set up, noisy and very limited.
About six years ago a local department store (Upton's) went out of business and I was there buying some fixtures from them for my retail store. They asked if I was interested in a genset, I asked about it and made them an offer on two of them including the auto switches. They took my offer and I picked them up, set one at my house and one at my Dad's house. They are Onan's with a Cummins diesel engine, cabinet and built in 100 gallon fuel tanks. They are both 30KW, have low hours and will run the complete house. I had an electrician friend install them and they have been great. When the electricity goes out for 3 seconds they fire right up and you are back in business. It will automatically switch back and power off after the grid is back on for 5 minutes steady. So keep your eyes open and look around at some of these businesses going out and you may pick up one of these for not much more than a name brand portable genset would cost you.
