Bird Power

[trekkersmith1]

Jack,
The home A/C unit on my house runs off a 50 AMP breaker, which is the
vast majority of your potential power output. Assuming you would want
some of that power for the Bird, you could at least share an extension
cord to plug in their refrigerator and maybe run a fan or two plus a
computer, but not much more. Most home generators for whole house use
will be several times the capacity of your genset.
