Feel free to use whatever veggies you like. We used carrots, celery, garlic, red onion, parsley, oregano, thyme, 2 bay leaves, salt, and whole peppercorns. We simmered about 28 hours.

Beautifal show. The landscape reminds me of my childhood in North Central Florida.
Thanks! We’re about 20 minutes from Gainesville.
I bet you put on a better display than the town.LOL
It lasted almost twice as long at least lol!
Bro was that a fart?
I have the same problem with the lower lift lever. As soon as I get back in town from being out of town working I’m gonna take it apart and take it to a machine shop and have them reinforc it. Aggravating. Why use something so flimsy 🤷♂️
I agree!
Cool device! Thanks for sharing! Y’all stay cool!
Thanks brother!
What is the purpose of these two auxillary shut off switches?
I believe they’re for maintenance but two is crazy. They are a giant pain in the keester my opinion.
@@MaynardFamilyHomestead yeah, you can turn it off at the control pad, and turn of the disconnect breakers, and pull the fuse....I can't see the reason for these aside of an emergency kill?
Link?
Long life for all of you guys ❤
HELLO CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT TREE IS BEHIND, IT APPEARS AT MINUTE 6:00
That is a Live Oak, that one is pretty old too. I would estimate 50-60 years.
Why are so many of these batteries corroding
Thank Bidenomics and the 81,000,000 ID10TS that put him in office.
Wow, two days and $27,000 or more I would just go on vacation
Useless video if you don’t share results. I hate clickbait crap like this.
There’s a part two, instant gratification here.
The fart 😂😂😂😂
You have 3 ground bars in your main panel. Are you meaning isolated ground vs Earthed Ground?
You can't run feeder conductor in a service raceway per NEC 230.7. You have the service conductors and the feeder conductors in the same pipe which clearly is a code violation.
I recently got a similar auto watering timer. They are really awesome! Mine doesn't have an app, and it probably woukd be nice to have one. But I just use mine to water my small watermelon garden. Have you thought about or looked in to doing rain water collection? I guess since you have well water it's not as needed, but it has been pretty awesome learning and setting that up. Glad yall got some rain though! This has been a brutal summer for us here in Oklahoma with very little rain as well
I do like the rainwater collection idea! I want to add that at some point in the future.
@@MaynardFamilyHomestead it's very rewarding and exciting for sure. We just got less than 3/4" of rain and it filled my 275gallon tote and 55gallon tote, plus overflow!
I need that for my graden
What size generator wire did you use ?
You forgot to tell them to be sure the 100 amp breaker in the generator is on before testing house.
Great point, thank you!
I've watched this a couple of times already. I'll be planning to do my own. He did a great job! Maybe I can convince him to fly out to me and help me. lol
27 year electrician here. I’ve never installed a whole house generator so I watched your video to see if I was missing anything… Your video was great, excellent speed, no jumping around from clip to clip with edits and you covered a lot of information clearly. Great job and props for doing what you do to help neighbors.
Thank you for watching and for the kind words!
Dude.....safety goggles!
Rubber tire melting point is 365 deg. I suggest driving your truck down the road and checking the rear tire temp....I'd guess pretty hot. 180 is warm...but not melting temp...not even close.
Make sure to rinse really good after soaking in salt water !
I really enjoyed watching you do the chores rather than having to do the chores myself. Keep up the great work. 😊
Is there a certain size of control wire my run is going to be about 70 foot switch gear?
Hallelujah 🙌🏼
Yelp. That happens sometimes. 😂
lol that’s what I’ve heard! Just not around here. 😂
👌👍
It may be dry now, but God will soon send rain. Times may be hard now, but God will soon send easy times. Hang in there and know that God has you and your family in his hands ❤
Thank you! We got a good rain this afternoon!
Pray without ceasing. 💞🙏.....

Can always use a tarp or plastic to cover things while waiting
How many refrigerators and freezers does a family with 12 kids have? Lord, I have 3 refrigerators and two freezers with two little kids plus mom's wine fridge. These units are good for 4-5 days. Of course, if you change your own oil and can adjust valves if warranted you can get them going again for another 4-5 days. I have the portable 17500 Generac but I think I'm going to get a standby probably 26KW or perhaps liquid cooled.
Hahaha not enough! Two large chest freezers, about to add a third.
Did you install or hookup a grounding electrode conductor?
Can you run the control wires in the same conduit as the feeders to the generator?
Generac makes a control cable that they say can run in the same conduit. As a general rule in the electrical world, you want to keep your control wiring and current carrying conductors separate.
I know this is a year old . I was given a chicken house form like tractor supply carries. It had a rotten top so I made it a A roof. Then the part that was for the laying box slash roost , I put a wood floor . Then I took a piece of linoleum and cut to fit the floor . Put my wood shavings in . Now when I need to clean it out I just gather the chicks and pick up the flooring dump it off wash it let it dry some and return it . Made cleaning out so much easier. Great brooder you built. Be nice to have helpers like you got . Beautiful family .
Thank you! The linoleum is a good idea, I may have to incorporate that!
Very informative. Thank you! I am thinking of getting this exact model. Did you think it was loud or too noisy when it was running?
It’s not bad at all. It’s quieter than a standard portable generator because of the enclosure.
Great video. We’ve ordered online wholesale for the past few years from Superior and have been extremely happy with their products and service.
They’re awesome! I wish I would’ve found them sooner. Thanks for watching!
Bought my RK25 fall of 2021 , Our service dept here in western Ohio at RK is really great ran by Bob Wilson !
That looks great
Prayers for your family...and especially the miracle baby!!
Thank you!
CONGRATULATIONS!!
Good idea EMP-proof
Where did those Milwaukee drills come from😂
😂
Thank you for sharing all this info. I’ll check them out
Great video!
Wow -24 hrs should be $144 one day expensive yes but better than not having power.
What about the power take-off? I mow a lot, it has to work.
Works great. It is a live PTO, meaning it stays running even when the clutch is depressed.
