    5.So far so good. I’m impressed with the ease of use and the multiple charging functions. Not too heavy to move around and doesn’t take up much space. Price is about average for this unit. The true test will come during the next power outages this winter and next summer. But I think this unit along with my other off grid backup system will help us get through the power outages.0dB noise within 1000W, Quiet Operation,only 16.8kg(2008Wh)

      4.There's nothing I do not like about this generator! I am impressed with how easy it is to use. After watching some UA-cam reviews I had to buy it. No gas smells,no exhaust fumes and plenty of power. The generator runs many different device's all at once as long as you keep the output wattage within the 2000 wattage range. Very nice machine and worth the expense.Supports a capacity of up to 20KWh & a power output of 16KW.

    Looks great! Fun times ahead. I purchased one of those little machines that has a blue light and little fan that traps mosquitoes, flies, etc. It sits on a mall table inside by my patio door and traps insects as they try to come inside. Works great, and I was thinking you could take something like that down to the Swamp House and power it with the ETAKER and make it more comfortable back there. Of course, screens would help as well. 😊

    I see you are using Smartside siding. I used that for siding on my last house and for my workshop and shed on my current home. It really is a great product. Most will think it is the same as T1-11 but it is so much superior. Your little doll house for the 3' timer is the perfect choice for this product. Especially since it is up off the ground which will keep it from getting soaked. Can't wait to see it completed with stairs and window covers. You could outfit the "swamp" house with one of your Knee lamps and power it with the new power hootis thingy.

    Hi y'all. Great vlog and I liked it starting out with that shot of Ladly glancing over her left shoulder and flashing her beautiful eyes and smile. Nice build on the elevated Swamp Cabin. It looks good and will be very functional for the intended use. I'm wondering, are you are planning on putting some 1x material on for corner trim to keep rain from infiltrating the corner joints? I laughed out loud with that quick clip of the dog lying on it's back. It is such a joy watching you both work together. I was always a solo worker on projects, until my son got old enough to help. Jim, you are a luck man to have Lydia with her skills and willingness to work hard at your side on projects like she does. Lydia is also a great Mom and partner; you two are a great couple! I love your sense of humor!! You really have some nice property, how many acres? Jim, you mentioned it took about 15 years to clear that area, apparently you have owned it a long time. Lydia, I agree that the Etaker would be very useful to Jenna and Ted. They should consider getting one, or possibly Etaker would allow them to test drdive one for their evaluation as well. Y'all have a blessed Thanksgiving and a great week ahead. Larry, Central Valley, Ca.
