Deals and steals

[Dennis in MA]

I could go for that Moto-desk if I was WFH'ing. I have a Vari at work and it stays up 100% of the time. But at home, I'm sitting 100% of the time. Decent deal though.

What is the real world use for 4500 watts? Fridge and a few lights? An entire small house?

Keep in mind that most lights these days are LED. 8-12w each. A whole house of light use (not all of them on - but all being used regularly) might amount to 200w. Charge your computer, I guess. Maybe a smaller TV with an antenna. (Because if you don't have power, it's likely you don't have internet anyhow.) As mentioned, well pump is vital. Cooking would be nice - hence my desire to ALWAYS have fuel-driven burners. (Maybe I can't bake/roast, but I can use the stove top.) HVAC is the final one. You probably won't run your A/C, but you'll run the heat in most houses no problem. Unless it's electric heat. LOL

We are designing a new house right now. I'm going to incorporate a generator into the mix (propane) and possibly solar depending on the cost. I haven't talked to the architect about sizing, but I'm thinking all of these things already.

What are you comparing it too, the other WGen3600 variations? The one you linked is duel fuel, Co2 sensor, and voltmeter (DFcv). No wheels.

If you are comparing it to the generator I posted the other day, it is cheaper because this one is not an inverter generator.

Ok so what does that mean?

How Does an Inverter Generator Work?
An inverter generator works by converting AC electric current into DC electric current and then inverting it back to AC to create a cleaner wave of electricity. If you’re not sure what the difference between AC and DC power is, please check out our article about electrical phases. Also read up on the basics of how generators work.

A typical non-inverter generator produces what is called “dirty” power, which is basically power with voltage spikes that can harm sensitive electronic equipment. It has a high total harmonic distortion (THD), which represents the variance from the standard 60-herz frequency. This means that if you were to plug your computer into a regular open-frame generator, the power fluctuations could cause computer memory loss or operating errors.

An inverter generator “cleans” up that power by inverting the electrical wave in a way that allows for a consistent flow of electricity without the ripples and irregularities of dirty power. It has a clean THD of less than 6%. You would need an electrical engineering course to understand all the complexities of how this works. Just know that an inverter generator improves the quality of electricity and allows you to plug in a computer or smart phone without fear of damage.

I grabbed 2 of those as I have a few 80% lowers and some uppers kicking around. What is the chance that they fill my order as it gave me the option to add (which I did as it was in stock) 2 of the Geissele Automatics Premium Mil-Spec Buffer Tube Assembly - Super 42 Spring - H1 Buffer - DDC reg price $127 but their discounted price was $8.00 !! I couldn't hit check out fast enough. My order went through but when I checked on it this am it is now showing those are out of stock. I'm guessing someone was supposed to price those at $80.00 not $8.00 and they probably have in small print "not responsible for typos" but we shall see.

I posted that the other night

Better order early. Last time I ordered the MBT-2S, it took just over 4 months to ship. And that was listed as "In Stock".

I got the shipping notification earlier tonight

My Geissele “Blem” rail came in today from the blem sale I had posted. Honestly I don’t see any visible blems. I am so pissed I didn’t buy the matching upper receiver as they are now sold out. FML.

Well I got shipping notification that my order shipped, including both Geissele buffer tube assemblies. Can't believe they honored the $8.00 price. Makes it worth buying a $60 BCG.

I picked up one of these last time they were on sale. My dealer laughed at me when I picked it up. It was an impulse buy, and I don't plan on ever firing it.

Pretty slim pickings, especially in the clearance section. Lots of oddball sizes and colors, which I guess is to be expected. Picked up a comfy looking sherpa lined hoodie though.
