Generator

Generator

The generator was still in pretty good condition... if the power went out and patients were on life support, this generator would supply the hospital with the necessary electricity.

A lot of medium-sized buildings had natural gas generators to run emergency lights. Prior to the popularity of individual battery light systems, they were seldom removed since they were already there and still quite useful. I remember having to do monthly generator tests at a job, only a few years ago.

We still use a gas powered generator similar to this where I work ( and we still do monthly maintenance on it). Parts are a b!$@h to get though.

Damn, this should not have been left behind - it appears to be in a state of great repair - I know I wouldn't mind having one down in the garage - probably going to need one to power up our little village here for the upcoming revolution - but then we'd need...? what diesel? forget it.
