How did you know it was fake? what was the difference?
I am lucky enough to have a basement that I can put a 115 gallon water barrel in. On top of that, I have enough water filters around to filter water for about 10 years if needed. Most certainly is something to keep on top of.
Ahhh, yea BF. I've used em doing ep and cp work. Was thinking about the Motorola version recently. Thanks for the link.
Have 2 gens on propane for electric backup, Secondary house wiring for hot water heater, well pump and refrigerator. Lost water Saturday. Had several gallons for drinking and a lot for flushing solids. Called the well and pump folks at 0803 this morning and explained situation I was told they are pretty booked and may not be today, which was fine and understandable. She said they would call before the came out. About 10am, they called and asked if I was home. I said yes and she said they are at your place and need to know where your pump house is. I said I would be right out and show them. By they time I got there, they had the pump house panel opened up and diagnosed the problem. By 11am, we had water. They ran a new electrical line from pump house to house (will bury later.) Somewhere in the old line there was a short or separation. 30 years old. Moral: Can't have enough water. I could have hooked up a generator for the well pump, but if there was a break in the electrical line 100 yards to the pump house, the generator would not solve the problem.
I remember Katrina and people were using all sorts of canoes and small bass boats.

I picked up one of those years ago from tru prep. Haven't had to use it yet. Hopefully never will
Realized the generator I bought several months ago was only 120V, and won't run my well pump... I liked everything about it, but now I need to buy another one and get a parrel get, or sell it and buy a new one. Neither option really excites me. Thankfully we did not need it.
