If Russian hackers or Putin takes down the power grid in the SE, how many will be OK for a few months?

My incredible parents as Mom pined on my Eagle badge. Scouts then and now are very different folks.

Well done!
Looks like you were in an Explorers Post, and I notice your OA sash. My years in scouts were great.

I'm so mad at myself for not buying the Big Berkey before it doubled in price. Now I'm trying to figure out who can hook up a solar panel and generator to my well pump. Help!!

Solar

Solar is not cost effective unless it is. I have several large marine batteries (I often fish by trolling) on my dock. I have used solar there to charge them, and run the night security lights for maybe 15 years. It works !!
If the grid goes down solar will keep me in power for things like playing stored movies and tunes on the laptop. It will keep me with lots of light. The deal is batteries, and I have many.

It will be the globalist tied leftist who instituted the scamdemic who shut out the lights. The day you folks realize this is a controlled demolition of the West you will all be better off. Never forget dirty Ukraine and Biden were in bed together long before this proxy war started.. and it started because of the weapons we had been sending Ukraine .. in hopes to trigger an event like this. Most of you really have no idea what’s happening. You will find out soon enough.

Wonder if something similar to your dock set up would work for temporary power for my well?

On a sunny day it would, nothing at night. The downfall of solar is the battery. You must have an adequate battery pack for your needs.

There is no reason to think on vittles unless you have water. I am blessed with that as I live on a river. Others need to have a water plan.

Remember that deer and bears and beavers and rabid raccoons and foxes etc pee and crap in that river and dead fish float belly up in that river too. Not to mention all the trash and sewage that probably gets dumped in the river daily. Enjoy your meal.

enjoy your anger

That has been true for thousands of years as the Cherokee and settlers drank from it. Unlike most rivers, above me is no industry or cities. I have drank lots of it by accident while swimming, skiing, etc -- no harm I also have a supply of water filters and a huge storage tank.
Lack of drinking water will not be what takes me down.
!972 Tiger, where is your weak link?

I would have to think about that. I don’t have a river but I do have a creek that runs by my property. Food is no problem. Lack of power is no problem.
I guess my weakest link would be having to put up with my wife if she lost social media. OMG

Yeah I live on the lake but I'd still like to be able to power the pump to my well, temporarily at least. Got chickens and a garden.

Gas to power it for weeks, and enough ammo to defend it. Let me know if y’all need a place to kick it in the AC
