> If there are others I’d love to understand them. In the past year or two we’ve had an eight day power outage, five day power outage, multiple 1-2 day power outages, and who knows how many hour-ish interruptions and gasoline or propane for the generator get expensive and inconvenient running it for long periods of time. Our main limit to how long we can comfortably survive without power is that we’re on well and septic. Without power the pumps for both aren’t running so we have no running water and no sewer. We have bottled water on hand to at least cover drinking, but if we were to just shit in a hole outside we would basically just be dumping raw sewage into our water. Local power generation and storage is very interesting to me.
