"I bought my 3000 about 15 years ago and at the time I could carry it around alone. .....
Will I turn 80, I will think about adding wheels and build a lift for it
Buy a Jack Russel Terrier >>> he will keep you young. We have 3 of them"
We have Shelties that have the same (or worse) effect.
On remote start--can't see the point. The battery died in the 3000 some time after the first year (2003), and have used the pull cord ever since. (The battery costs too much to be worth it). The inverter does it all ( the microwave etc ) at any time of day, so the gen is only for when actually battery charging when there is not enough solar. Not that often really.
What's the point? At 5.30 AM and you want coffee, you can't start the gen because of noise laws, so you use the inverter. By gen hours at 9.00am, you are s, shaved, and shampooed, and dressed, so you can go out and pull the cord to start the gen to recharge the batts.
