I have researched this subject over the last 10+ years. And I know a couple people that have tried limited phases of this experiment as well. My conclusion is, if do not have enough hobbies and too much free time, adding 'home shop power station' to the list might be fun. But there is no savings to be had over grid power. Even if you use the waste heat from the generator in winter, plan on being much less efficient in your work or shop activities, as your generating system will demand time and attention. I have a waste oil heater in the shop, been here for 10 years. I finally got tired of all the time it wastes (waste oil is NOT free heat) and am installing a gas furnace in it's place.
