Carey I have not but it is on my Google search list in the morning to see what it is - LOL.
OK, curiosity got the better of me and I decided to take a look tonight. It looks pretty interesting but a lot pricier than what I currently installed (Generator and flip switch). However, it doesn't require gasoline so in a true emergency situation such as a hurricane where we will be on our own for at least 90 days it looks like a good solution. I am going to do a litter more research in the coming day. Thanks for the suggestion.
