Well.. I wired my house with a proper generator transfer panel and inlet so I could power needed hardware (TV's. Food storage, Furnace) off the Motor home's Onan... However before that.. Long before that.. I recall one power fail.. The weather was far nicer so we were not freezing our ... ahem's off.. but it was dark, and Darling Daughter needed to finish her homework.. So shortly after I got home, headed out to the trailer we had back than and pulled a container labeled LIGHTS out of the thing... Cars would go down the street, you'd hear the screech of brakes, and the sound of a car in reverse. Why.. Well, our house was lit up all nice and cherry..... It was the only house in the neighborhood so lit.

THANK YOU MR. COLEMAN (Coleman gas lanterns)
