OT The Shit Hits the Fan Thread (SHTF)

[EL PRESIDENTE]

So we are down to rolling blackouts in LA now. Lots of quakes too.

Anyone use a portable solar generator? Are they any good?

This setup by Jackery will cost around $500.
Amazon product ASIN B07PGS2WN8
There are some $50 ones, but probably pretty shitty.

Thanks Obama!

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

Id get a nuclear generator if I could

 

[Minstrel]

The rolling blackouts are just going to be for an hour or two for any given household, for selected areas, til the 20th.

You're gonna be fine, lil' buddy.

Buy a couple deep cycle marine batteries......charge them in your car and take them in the house during a blackout have one charging in the car and one in the house running 12 volt shit...they'll run 12 volt lights and a 12 volt tv or computer or radio...etc...your car is a generator and you might as well get more power for your gasoline...simple fix I've used camping many times

Using a car generator uses more gasoline.
Driving with your windows down to avoid using the air conditioner also uses more gasoline.

You easily have more disposable income than anybody I know. Vegas, solar panels, lame ass expensive shoes and god damn ninja swords! When do you have time to work, all you do is shop!

no kids + rent control + no car payment.

And I've only gone to Vegas once this year, and it was on sale b/c of the pandemic!

EDIT: Twice. Its a quick drive from LA.

YOU TOO CAN BUY A NINJA SWORD, SON. LET ME TEACH YOU THE WAY.

STAY WOKE.

If Trump wins, I expect a full meltdown of society. Minnesota is nothing to what may happen.

I agree with you.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

I mean, if you own a house, you should have some kind of generator, whether it be portable or a larger one for the entire home. I just don't have the room for one.

Some water reserves. Some food reserves. Etc.

The cities (such as Portland) will reap what they sow.

what are you talking about? ...I'm talking about using your car to charge a battery....manually taking the battery in your house or when I camp just running a line from it to the tent, etc....essentially your car becomes a power charging source for 12 volt use without the need for buying a generator....it doesn't affect your gas mileage at all to charge two batteries while you drive....best to have one charging and one for use...best thing about it ...in a blackout...no noise at all to run lights or a computer.

You live in Nashville which has a very high crime rate compared to Portland..choices...cities are cities....living near lots of people comes with its risks.
With a crime rate of 54 per one thousand residents, Nashville has one of the highest crime rates in America compared to all communities of all sizes - from the smallest towns to the very largest cities. Dec 16 2019....as you said...you reap what you sow when you move somewhere

I stand by my comment.

You invested in the highest crime city in the country.....hey, maybe you like that adrenaline....please avoid Oregon in the future if it makes you feel safer...I wouldn't live on the east coast for all the money in the world...I'll be right here in good old Oregon. Spread that word though because I don't want more haters moving here

I'd bet good money you're not standing at all
