- factsarelolz 4y agoYeah but couldn't you just... run a biodiesel generator to recharge your batteries?
- smileysteve 4y agoMost of that applies to a gas generator, even moreso. The generator you use once every year, but the gas regularly goes stale; are you really going to want to go refill it and hand crank it in a hurricane when the auto start didn't kick on? And you're hoping it, its ventilation, its fuel supply, and it's wiring aren't damaged or flooded.
- oaktrout 4y agoOne advantage that gas stoves have is that they don't need electricity to cook, so if your batteries or generators fail, you can still prepare a meal while you wait for the power to be restored.
