Emergency Preparedness:
(Small Generators)

I have a larger generator however I have some neighbors that purchased smaller generators mainly just for the refrigerator, coffee maker, phones, etc. That have worked out pretty good for them, and they do use less gas.

Emergency Preparedness:
(Solar Generators)

The solar generators can be nice. Quite and stealthy at night, but I find them over priced, and most don’t have the amps to turn over a refrigerator, garbage disposal, ect.

Emergency Preparedness
(Headlamps & emergency lighting)

I always keep my emergency lighting box easy to get to. It consists of:
- Headlamp for ea. family member
- Flashlights
- Batteries, both lithium & rechargeable
- Led 12v lighting strings

Emergency Preparedness:
(Gas Storage)

People have to do their own research and follow local laws. That being said, I like having reserve fuel in case of emergencies. I keep a couple 5-gal containers for regular use, mowers, etc. But I also like a couple 30-gal drums. Why 30’s ? Because they are stored in a garage, and easier to move. Once a year I roll them out, add additive as needed to preserve it, stir it with a broom stick. Seal it back up, re-date a label and stuff em back in storage. You can get the barrels from a local container supplier (get new barrels). You’ll also need a pump. I have shown two. I got the better one. And, a barrel tool to open & close.
