The Generac generator costs about $4500 installed. It automatically starts its self and rooms for about 10 minutes to maintain the battery. Dan

Without giving away too many details, I have a sizable grant which I have not used and it must be used on items to make my house more accessible. Since my house is already accessible the only things I can think of are additional door openers, a device like you suggest here, widening my office door, and perhaps putting tinting on my windows so that my skin disorder (my knuckles get very hard and dark when exposed to too much sun) is not further exacerbated.

Although we initially had trouble with the system It turns out that a clamp was installed incorrectly by the manufacturer.

I got one so we could operate my bed, suction machine and humidifier during a power outage. http://www.xantrex.com/web/id/218/p/1/pt/30/product.asp At 12:50 PM 1/13/2007, B.

This allows me to operate the ECU wirelessly from my wheelchair. I, however, I am unable to use a UPS near my ECU as it dampens out the X-10 signals to the rest of the house. Best of luck in your endeavors. ---- Jim Lubin [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://makoa.org/jim disAbility Resources: http://www.makoa.org . --------------------------------- Don't pick lemons.
