Yes, if money was no object. Although I haven't done the research, I was under the impression that they cost a good chunk of change. Considering, it would be used maybe 1 day out of every 2 years, I didn't think it was a good investment for my small reef.
But with a generator in your garage you can have your tank covered and even be able to make coffee or toast in the morning. For one thats into camping it can be a nice tool aswell. Might aswell have a tool that can be used and not just a backup. That power outage made me think a bit. If that happened here...$$$ + pain, and lots of $$. Shitty for you people out there in the dark.
