Power Strips

I may be doing it wrong, but I think it's a little crazy that you can only plug one work light into one generator. Surely a generator that can power the wash trailer can power more than one light.

Yes it would make logical sense to be able to power multiple small machines from a single generator that is capable of powering larger machine. The biggest worry about that though would be that too many worklights could mess with the game's engine and cause instability and crashes.

I could definitely see that being an issue. There just needs to be a better system to work in the dark. I like the worklights, and I don't want a ton, but it just seems a bit ridiculous to have one light per generator.

[Menacing Scarab]

Yeah I completely agree with you on that point. Personally I've worked as an "electrician" before
and I can definitely tell you that if the generator can power two large machines via the two large power connections it can certainly power more than 1 small item like a work like or the magnetite separator.

I am not now nor have I ever be a licensed electrician nor a journeyman level or anything like that. However, my father is a licensed master electrician so I have grown up around it learning about all the rules and how it actually works)----

I'd be happy with just one more small connection on a generator. Or three. Magnetite separator, Wave Table, and maybe a light. I didn't even know you could get lights. I just went to bed at night.

Hehe, yeah, they're kinda tucked away in a corner. If you are in the warehouse and the cash register is on your left you are looking at the back wall by the corner with the counter and there are the work lights.

Haha they don't really help that much. I do that most of the time.

I support adding another small electrical connection to the little generator. Two lights powered from a portable generator seems reasonable to me.

There are already electrical couplers to connect another length of cable. Why not just make each one with 4 or 5 connectors on it. That would allow one connection from the genset, and several outlets for either extending the reach or running several machines at once. Make it only for the smaller 110v cords, and leave the 220v as single feed.
