After a week without power (Sep. 2004), my brother, who lives just east of TV in Marion County, plunked down a "bundle" for a full-service generator.

He likes to advertise that he doesn't have any problems with power outages!

I should think not - he hasn't experienced one since September 2005!

And,so far as I know, he hasn't had to energize his generator even once in that time frame!

Point: Is a fairly expensive protective system worth it? Does the cost of a full-service generator service take care of the personal-local charges?
