Electricity needs when the grids down.

[Straight Shooter]

Good points BP ....I have oil lamps and the oil to last months , a wood stove with loads of firewood and woods full of trees, as far as generators I have four and fuel , oil etc , seeds , tools, in order to feed us .....I too remember my grandparents using one oil lamp for the whole farm house and a fire range for cooking ,heating and nothing else ...no electricity supply ...at all....the solar set up I have is for coms and charging batteries and one freezer , and you are right ...when they fail they fail as with anything ....but I intend to make good use of what I have until such time I can’t .....and when that time comes I can go back to the times when there was nothing , I have made it my business to find out how! And so should anyone else on here.
