scary stuff out of Europe. In the event of a prolonged outage would be scary. Especially if I'm in the city when it occurs. Seems like my campers gas fridge might work but my solar cuts out when the grid goes down and no battery. To say nothing of water as well.
We have a gas stove so I guess I could cook, and use candles for light, but no heating or fridge. Would need to eat boiled rice and ration what little canned items I have until power is restored. Rice with tuna and canned peaches?
mind if I have the canned peaches for desert rather than as the main?
water for your rice could also be an issue.
