lol, not trying to squeeze out different meanings. Honestly, I think your set up is pretty clever and shows a lot of foresight.

That' s a hell of a motivator.....
Edit to add... Getting ready for nighttime... Have the AC going full blast right now - chilling the whole house down. The water heater freshly cycled ( it is electric) and the well pump shut down. We are now on gravity feed frim the water tank in the ceiling of my garage. Not much pressure - less a shower and more like getting peed on - without the humiliation.... Still - you get clean. Plus you can get water for coffee in the mirning - flush the toilet - wash dishes - or simply get a drink of water. All without power.....
Will shut off the genny before bed and go on the batteries/ inverter....
Glad none of that’s an issue here. This is the coldest month of the year, and temps today will top out around 60F. In the hottest month (January) we occasionally make it all the way up to 80.
