Oil lamps w/oil supply and Coleman lantern w/plenty of cylinders provided light. Loaned out my generator to a couple of neighbors for 2hr stretches each in both the mornings and evenings to keep refrigeration and anything else they wanted it for. I ALWAYS have gasoline on hand. Now that our power is back, my generator is with a friend who has local damage and is waaaay down the list.

Though never a fan of MonPower, formerly Alegheny, IMO they are doing a pretty good job with this one.

Sounds like they switched rivers, but were too chicken (or too sensible) to spell out the new one in full.

I have a sine wave inverter, a few old auto batteries, 2 diesel cars for charging and months of Diesel as a Tactical Reserve.

The ability to run the refrigerator (furnace in winter), have a few lights on and fire up the computer make life not so tough for a few days.
