Reburn Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 I've got a upc back up and a battery powered bubbler im not using currently. The upc will run a jebao wp10 for about 6 hrs. You would have to pick up on Taylor though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reburn Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Versace, I agree disaster preparedness should be a top priority. Bogdan does seem to have a battery backup in place. I'm sure he was thinking like all of us where is the power will be back on in the morning. I'm sure had he known that he was going to be off the grid for so long he would have gone to either Sears or Home Depot this afternoon and got a cheap generator.

Bogdan Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Thanks for the offer but I can't pick it up.my leaf battery is almost gone as well. I am charging the upc at work right now. It should give me approx. 6hr of one small power head running. Of the power is not back in 6 hr. I just give up. Anyway I really appreciate your offer.

Dan H Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 I have a DC to AC converter that can push 1000 watts if you want to borrow it. I also have very long extension cords. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reburn Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Dan, I had to google what I leaf is. A Nissan Leaf is an electric car. And his battery is almost dead. A dc converter isn't gonna help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JGon Posted May 25, 2015 Author Share Posted May 25, 2015 This is what we talked about in the meeting a couple weeks ago at Dan's house! This is pretty serious stuff when it actually happens. I was about take Dan's suggestion on using the car as a source of power. But luckily power came back in the morning for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan H Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Ya, I know about the leaf, I just thought maybe you had another vehicle, or a friend or whatever.

Bogdan Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 OK, power is back. only one victim so far and pH relatively low 7.75 (usually above 8.0). in case of power outage lasting longer than 24h the only real option is power generator. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
