Mission
Help households choose reliable whole‑home backup power with clear guidance, practical tools, and no hype—so the lights stay on when it matters.
Who We Are
A small, outage‑obsessed team with experience in different roles within the StrongMocha News Group—editorial, testing, photography, and audience operations.
How We Help Readers
- Translate load calculations into a kW plan you can understand.
- Explain natural gas vs. propane, tank sizing, and line sizing basics.
- Demystify transfer switches, interlocks, and service‑rated equipment.
- Offer placement, setback, and ventilation checklists for safety.
- Provide maintenance schedules and winterization steps.
What We Publish
- Sizing by home and circuit priorities (starting vs. running watts).
- Transfer‑switch types and placement best practices.
- Fuel math, consumption estimates, and cold‑weather kits.
- Permits, inspections, and common install pitfalls.
- Outage playbooks and remote monitoring.
How We Work
- We verify specs against manuals and codes; we don’t replace licensed pros.
- If you purchase via links, we may earn a commission at no extra cost; editorial choices remain independent.
- We keep guides current as models, controllers, and standards evolve.
