I’ve lived deep in the mountains of the American West for nearly a decade, and while I adore our remote life, I don’t love the lack of running water during power outages! Our 20-kilowatt propane Generac generator keeps the party going when the grid goes down, but it doesn’t power our shared well, which is on its own meter. As quaint as bucket flushing might sound, it’s still gross, and I’ve wanted a way to keep the water running since we moved in. Enter Jackery and their Explorer 5000 Plus power station with its little friend, the Smart Transfer Switch.
