Power is back on, we survived. It was an adventure to be out of touch for 72 hours. Might make it a routine honestly. Board games and candlelight made us feel togetherness we've missed lately. Also looking into generators and power banks for the future. Tonight, calm and quiet installing @GrapheneOS on my Pixel 9a thanks to the awesome tutorial done by @BTC Sessions image

Its great that you have power again. We're still in the dark but doing well. Its good to go thru this sometimes, since it points out where our deficiencies are.

we have regular outages so I got a generator as soon as we moved out here. one of the best things you'll buy. would do solar, but in the wet season we can go for days and days with no sun so the battery storage I'd need is prohibitively expensive.

We're on the same situation. I have a great spot on south facing slopes for solar but not enough exposure toe be reliable. I'm getting the feeling a mix between a tri fuel hi output generator with something like an ecoflow Delta battery would be a good start.

Thank you! Hopefully yours comes back quick. We learned a lot this time around but overall it wasn't too bad. Lack of warm baths was tough with the kids but we managed. They didn't care...

I use it for many years now and I love it. The only contra for me is that I need WhatsApp for work and I don't get the notes instantly.

All credit to @GHOST for getting me up and running. If anyone has cyber security quex, consultation, direction, contact him. Thinking of putting him on retainer (but he is an ungovernable misfit, so that is a non-starter).
