Why can't a gen set be an option if you live in an apartment? Are
you allowed to have a LP gas grill? For a mere 125 bucks most if mnot
all th emajority of gas engines can be converted to run off LP gas, so
there is not any storage of any fuels other than the typical LP bottle
on the gas grill, and once the gas supply is disconnected its no
longer a possible fire potential due to fuel in a typical gas tank.
Aprtments in this region all have storage areas where folks keep odds
and ends......as such...I am sure for a lot less than 3 grand a means
to powering up and not suffering thrugh a lower outage is able to be
done quite easily. Those in storm / cane prone areas where power
outages do and wil occur just do not have an excuse to try and go
short term. Its gonna bite them bigger than life.

I am guessing you were never living in any large appartment building,
lets say on 4 floor, 100 yards from the front door ? :-)
Where are you going to put this generator ? Where do you run cables ?
Be real. Generators are not for apartments, unless you are willing
to run them right in your living room, next to the aquarium :-)))
