Save yourself HUNDREDS of dollars by DIY installing a Manual Transfer Switch for home backup power. It is WAY easier than you think it is....

WARNING: Working with electricity involves an inherent risk of injury or even death. Be aware that in many areas, doing ANY electrical work in your home requires a permit. And in some areas, may even require a licensed electrician to do the work.

Take care to follow all necessary safety precautions and fully understand the requirements in your area before attempting any electrical work.

Here are some great Manual Transfer Switch options worth considering:
10 Circuit (30A/7500W, the 1 I installed in the video): https://amzn.to/3uKZuOE
10 Circuit (without the external inlet box): https://amzn.to/3Gvq14M
6 Circuit Transfer Switch (push-button resets): https://amzn.to/3GvpKPi
6 Circuit Transfer Switch (switch resets): https://amzn.to/47TGOu0
4 Circuit Transfer Switch: https://amzn.to/3t0C7zW

Here are some great options for Home Battery Backup Systems that offer portability AND capacity expansion:

Note that to power 240V circuits, your power source must also be able to supply 240V. The ones listed above are 120V natively (in the US) and require dual-unit configurations to get 240V output. But even in 120V output, these back-up power systems work fine for all your 120V circuits with the same setup I demonstrate in this video, but you'll (typically) need an adapter cable to go from the RV30 connectors on the power stations to the L14-30 connector on the Transfer Switch generator cable.
