Emergency Apartment Power
Does anyone live in an apartment and worry about electricity for battery powered stuff during a long power outage? I'm thinking of critical medical equipment, computers, cell phones, TV's, radios and stuff like that. Generators are not an option in an apartment because they are too dangerous (note carbon monoxide comments above) and battery backup usually only last for less than a day.
Would anyone need to charge batteries during a long (3+ day) power outage--- thinking hurricane or similar?
If people think there is a need, I'll share a new idea that I've got….
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
