Included are two Generator Locking Plug power cables, a heavy duty 50 ft and 25 ft extension cord, battery charger, fuel siphon hose, etc. There is a 50 AMP RV cord which can be spliced on for using an RV outlet to back feed a power panel.
It has always been stored in the garage or in a sealed crawlspace so it has never set out in the rain. I even have, I THINK, a frame for a lean to tent or partition to protect it in rainy or snowy weather.
I add "jumper cable" hookups to the battery so that you can jump start it or use one of the "JUMP PACKS" if needed. It also has a functional MANUAL PULL STARTER. This is the most versatile generator you will find. The battery is probably a year old and has always been on a Desulfinating maintainer.
The reason I carefully selected this unit was the built in Electronic "Surge" protection. It is safe to use on electronic devices and often used for powering a Project Manager's trailer with computers. The 50% SURGE is great for larger, transient loads like a home water pump.
We have a 3,200 SF home and I was able to keep the Pump and Hot water heater running as well as the necessary circuits for living. Obviously I understood the watts or amperage of each and used common sense. BUT, you could easily heat water, then turn off the breaker, and have the pump running....so that you have about 70% of the capacity or 5,600 Watts. THAT is easily enough for running most homes in an emergency, including a microwave and all the refrigerators.
I will provide, if requested, some "tech support" and advice on HOW to install if needed... One of the line cords can easily be fitted with dual 4 gang outlets if you desire to use extension cords and not backfeed a panel. I have ramps if one needs to roll it onto a trailer.
Thanks for looking...
