Things you should have already known.
Family here learned also that you should not run your generator indoors.

My neighbor who came over for water an outage or two ago was complaining
that they could not find any D cells for their portable radio.

Some people never learn.

A inverter is a wonderful thing, just connect to your car battery and
let engine idle. for a 100 bucks you can get a thousand watt inverter,
for lights, radio and a tv if the load isnt too heavy


My next door neighbor owns a welding company. When the neighborhood
had a sustained power outage, she brought one of her big diesel
generators home from the shop and shared it with us. Her house was one
of the most badly hit in the storm, and everybody'd run over there
first and helped clean things up even before attending to our own
problems. Groups handle disasters better than individuals can.
