lol, i got no worries here, i got me a solar charger set up to charge some batteries and a 2kw inverter to run me things off of.

and if there isnt any sun to charge batteries i can ither use my bicycle generator or use the little deal i built to get 12v(only good for charging the batteries) from radio waves, i didnt invent it , have to give credit to Tesla fer it, he invented it in 1901 and ya still never see anything like it, or they wont admit to having any of bigger designs.


this is a link to a basic design as it was in 1901.

I say we all should get our own nuclear power plants! LOL!!!

[Hellfighter]

good if your nuclear power plants! has a melt down it be in your home area. you can have it and keep it as will.

it don't matter DD power line connect to all power plants, if they brake you have no power anyways.

power lines underground is the best, but then even some were they come out above ground to connect to a power plant of some type.

Was just on phone with bustin for a good 33 minutes, it's pretty bad in texas I hear...trees down highways closed the whole nine yards

[Bustin]

Bad, omfg there is a huge oak tree and 2 smaller ones completely covering my driveway. Thank god i have a chains saw or i would have never got my sister to her grandparents.

It's insane i got plenty of pics when the cell network frees up to send ya'll! Trees are falling cause of the ground, the trees arent snapping, the ground is frozen solid, and is shattering like glass. The trees are just breaking the ground like glass and falling over.

Hardly any power cuts last year. I got pissed when there was a power cut throughout the day ages ago last year... and it basically sucked outside...
