Jay Naylor

Yeah.

Aramis Calcutt

Is everyone okay?

Glenn Sellers

Da-yum about the generator. A hurricane is definitely not the time you want to find out about one having problems.

Glenn Sellers

Ain't it the truth?

Curtis Thompson

Stay safe!

Jay Naylor

Won't!

Jay Naylor

Will do.

Jay Naylor

I'm in the loop.

Jay Naylor

Looks like it's just my street. It really did come to my house.

Jay Naylor

Hell.

Jay Naylor

Don't huge me dude, everyone's looking.

Conner

Dont die <3

NakedAlice

I hope you are doing well!. Thanks for reporting the problem. Take care of yourself and stay in touch!

IamUnknown

Stay safe out there, man. Either way, I give it a week and we'll hear legends of the new king of the gators.

Michał Jastrzębski

Life and safety always has priority. Stay safe there.

NakedSunFlower

Ok, everything is very clear. Power failure happens frequently, don't worry about it. Hope everything will be ok soon!

Brandon

Oh nuuuuu *huggies* be safe bud, you’ll always be on our minds

Big bad boys

Keep safe and stay safe !

rah

Stay safe, man. You don’t want to pull a Wet Dorothy, and end up isekai’d in a fur ladened version of Georgia. Imagine how long the title of the novel would be…

Steve

The other issue is not the generator shutting itself off while it has a real problem that is going to break the device. The other thing that happens is their is a perceived problem that is either minor or non existent and is a sensor issue. Then you have a perfectly fine generator that doesn't work.

Spyke

Ian was very inconsiderate and damn, nothing like a backup generator failing on you when you need it...

ghostman

Stay safe out there!

Sagher

Agreed. Especially since he’s already mentioned this before.

Kellerkind1931

Stay safe and hopefully things getting well soon.

Amadose

Stay safe!!

jewellsbedamned

Stay safe!

Matt letterman

This is a really weird comment bro

Matt letterman

GOD DAMNIT LYNNE!

Good to hear that you are Okay. Now for the bigger problem: Deciding which piece of meat in the freezer to BBQ first. Thankfully due to your “Old School” drawing skills you can remain productive and work on story lines etc. Take care.

Justin Stout

Well now I know what state you're in and roughly where in that state you are.

Spectre

That sucks that you go through the trouble of being prepared, and that fault hits anyway. Glad you’re safe otherwise ^.^ art stuff can wait.

Kuratenshi

Safety over productivity. Be well Jay

Jay Naylor

It self tests every week. It was fine for a few hours and decided not to be when I was asleep.

We make a point to run our generator for a couple hours every quarter and make sure it's serviced regulalry even though it may not be in use. Better to find the problems when it's not needed than the other way around.

Laxxly

It's okay Jay. We totally understand. Take your time you need.

Egor - so here's the problem. In situations where an emergency happens and you desperately need power for example here in Northern Canada if winter happens and there is a power outage and you are relying on a generator and it doesn't work then you have the very real chance of freezing to death. I would rather take the chance of it running and possibly self-destructing then it's not running and me unable to get a part and being found slump frozen over my generator. The problem is the parts are not handy. Now if any technologically supply generator came with an entire bag of spare parts for parts that are common failures that would be a different matter but of course they don't.

Reptiles of Lustria

Stay safe and warm Jay! Oh wait sorry I'm in Canada. I guess warm isn't too much of a concern. No need to apologize nature happens. Please take care of yourself and we don't mind if there is a delay if you want to finish more pages and put it out later when you can.

Egor A. Palchyk

No need to apologize. We appreciate the update and wish for you to stay safe.

Doomslayer69

Stay safe dude and hope you get all your power back soon

Egor A. Palchyk

This is a very common sentiment....and one I've never understood. Why is continuing to work until the product destroys itself or damages the property surrounding it preferable to it locking down when there's an issue? Like, I know it's annoying for things to stop working when they look fine. But you know what else is annoying? Buying a new one when you could replace a 5 USD component...or your residence catching on fire.

Antonio C

It's literally a cat4 hurricane. Take a minute. Be safe. Be well.

Kilo_coywolf

Just glad you're ok. Stay safe👍

Earnest Adams III

Stay safe mah dude!

Lyrith Underwood

Hope things work out on your end, dude. Guess the universe wanted to give you a break from posting lol

Steve

The problem with more self monitoring technology is that sometimes it will make things stop working when there is no real issue. The old generators would work to the point of self destruction if whoever running it failed to notice an issue, but would not stop working due to a stupid code. The new electronic monitoring does increase efficiency though. Also, maybe the shut off was warranted due to an actual issue, but that is its own problem. Does seem like a new generator should not fail so quickly either by false error or real issue.

Jay Naylor

It was a Generac. Kicking back a 1902 undervoltage error after working fine for some hours.

Ed Daniels

No worries, glad you ok, stay safe

ClarityAbove

Can Iask what the generator was, curious to see which one died so early.

Remy Snow

Shit happens. Stay safe.

*shops for item to use during emergency* "Buy me! I'm made with technology(TM) that makes me work better!" *buys items. Stores for emergency* *Emergency* "LOL sorry I can't work right now better call someone" *everythingsucks.png*

Fanjangil

Sucks you _stayed_ down, but at least you get to figure out your generator now instead of when an actually hurricane hits your side of the state. I'm still up; dodged a bullet honestly, hit south of us.
