Same here. No power loss for me. Comes on like 30 seconds after power loss and stays on indefinitely. Runs off my gas line which always works.

:cool:

*snaps fingers* I forgot you can buy those heat packs.

Boiling water even if you don't have electricity shouldn't be a problem--there's always something burnable hanging around--and if I had to I'd chop up my furniture for wood, well, my parents may have a problem with it but I don't. =3

I use a Coleman catalytic propane indoor heater. When power goes out i turn it on low and it keeps room at 88F till power resumes. The 16 oz tanks i get for 2.99 each last about 8 hrs per tank.


a must have with reptiles

im an apperentice electrican so I could call a guy with a company van, they all have generators in the vans.

or id start up the fireplace and if the reptile room got too cold id move em all in the living room with the fire place.

i gotta get my own generator... expensive tho. i even priced it out to build one, but after all the regulation and everything, cost way more to build one. but i was going to make it out of a old 350 chevy i had laying around, be cool, but complete waste of gas and money. tho i could run a the whole block with it lol. 305 hp x 746watts = 227,530 watt generator lmao. given theres alot of other factors that would reduce that number...but who cares.
