I would think that there should be a very simple switch out there that
interrupts the line outside before the breaker panel and transfers the
entire house over to the generator input and it would be at a
reasonable price and resonable cost to instal since it is just one
split. �I can't seem to find a device like this anywhere.

In the $100 6 breaker box your getting the box and 6 breakers. �In the
100 amp switches that I have been able to fine there is only one 100

expensive because its a low demand low production device......

price would drop if everyone needed one
