A friend and I was talking this past week about being prepared if we were to lose all electricity. She said she was preparing now to be able to do that. I asked her what kind of things was she doing, what was she buying.
Her short list was a coffee pot that you would use if you were camping, and a manual can opener. Oh, and a grill to cook on.
I thought that was a pretty short list.
What would you think would be needed to survive without electricity?
Lighting is an area I think you would need to address. Candles can get expensive if you need them for a long period of time. I think the oil lamps are a more ecomonical way and gives better light. My husband and I are arguing over the buring of either of these are he believes they smoke up the ceiling, and I am talking little candles, here.
If you have gas then you can still cook, if not then yes you would need a grill with lots of charcoal/wood.
If you are like me and are on a well, no electricity means no water.
Maybe ILG can help us here.
