I had a scare the other night. About an hour after starting the kiln's cycle, the power went out for 2 hours. I had a huge and wonderful goddess in it at the time (it did crack but not irreparably, I believe).
In any case, my question is "Does anyone have a suggestion for a small and reasonably priced backup generator for a 110V kiln?" I hope to never have that horrid sinking feeling again. We seem to have plenty of power outages and my heart just can't take it...
