I live in the country and have mine plumbed into my house's propane tank. We probably lose power a couple times a year and it starts up automatically. I used to have to drag my portable one out of the shop, thru the bushes, plug it in, turn on the gas, pull the rope to start it, bitch about my aching back and talk about getting a permanent one. The power would usually go out during a storm so that would all be done in the rain.
