Oops, thought it was gear driven. That's what happens when you're up since 2 am. Funny how attuned you get to the sounds of your coach. Laid in bed wondering why I was awake, got up and saw the power was out. Everybody else had power, found out the main breaker in the tractor shed we're parked at had a meltdown. Almost swallowed my flashlight I was holding in my mouth when a big gecko crawled up my hand. Evidently when the farm was using the shed they were pulling way more than the 100 amp breaker was rated for. So early this morning I was out in 35 degree weather pulling out the old box and replacing it with a new one. Didn't trust the old box after seeing the melted plastic. The generator needed to be run anyway.
