John not sure what you're getting at?
We haven't had a "brown out" since I was a kid, 45 years ago and never since being here. I'd never run the generator without turning off the mains. New generator also has a meter on it.
We get the one bad storm every 4-5 years, over an 1-2 hour outage has only happened 3 times in 20 years. Northeast blackout of 2003 was the record at 23hrs, that was broken two weeks ago with a big blow and several big trees across our road lines, 26 hours. Crews were very busy that weekend, lots of trees down all over.
I'll have to live without a power back on indicator.

Not putting miles on your car is like not having sex with your girlfriend, so she'll be more desirable to her next boyfriend.
