[QUOTE="WessonOil, post: 2210770, member: 25792"] Here are two more things to look at for power outages that have been useful for me...short of buying a gas powered generator: [I][/I][B]Some kind of a jump box.[/B] These are used to jump start a vehicle, but they come with 12VDC "cigarette lighter style" outlets and USB outlets, as well as a built in light. This will run anything that you can run through a car's power outlet.

Converts your car's DC to household current. If your vehicle is running, then you can use household items on it. If the item is high voltage, youattach it directly to your battery rather than your car outlet. [url]http://www.walmart.com/ip/Schumacher-400-Watt-Power-Inverter-with-Battery-Clamps-and-12V-Male-Adapter/15167367[/url] These are both items that have uses outside of an emergency. [/QUOTE]
