Surviving an Ice Storm-Induced Power Outage
Chicago, IL (ContentDesk) December 2, 2004 -- Hurricane season may be officially behind us, but the threat of wide-spread power outages still loom in the horizon."Ice storms can snap power lines just as easily as any hurricane," said Jon Hoch, founder of Electric Generators Direct.com (http://www.electricgeneratorsdirect.com), an online emergency generator superstore.Surviving an ice storm-induced power outage is a lot different from the recent hurricanes in Florida, warns Hoch.
First, even is you have a natural gas furnance, it will not operate without electricity to power the blower. Secondly, if you try coping without the heat, the decrease in temperature could freeze your water pipes, causing them burst and flood your home. And finally, the days are much shorter, and the need for artificial light is even more critical.According to Hoch, you simply need a portable generator and a power transfer system to...

teenager is an important aspect of growing up. However, when teens discover their personal power they get the independence they desire, but may not yet know how to handle this power.

MAJOR GENERATOR SHORTAGE: Electric Generators Direct.com Now Taking Backorders on All Portable Generators
The effects of Hurricane Charley and Frances are being felt far beyond Florida. The tag team tandem just put the entire portable generator marketplace on backorder. In Ohio, Tony Holder tried to purchase a generator at his local home improvement store, only to find the shelves empty with the entire inventory on a truck headed south. In Florida, new generators are as scarce as snowballs, with the demand overshadowing the supply. Customers are forced to wait in long lines with lottery numbers, hoping for a "chance" to get one of the few arriving generators.
Many customers, who were simply unable or unwilling to wait, jumped online to purchase generators directly from the manufactures. Even this supply evaporated.
Electric Generators Direct.com (http://www.electricgeneratorsdirect.com), an online generator superstore that dropships directly from the manufacturer's warehouses, is completely sold out. The...
Tips for Purchasing a Standby Generator
So you've decided that you don't want to be left in the dark if a hurricane or a tornado or other disaster hits your area.
You've decided to buy a standby generator.
Sounds simple enough.
But when you get to the store, you find a bewildering variety of generators, from a small 5.5 kilowatt model for around $2,000 to a 45 kilowatt monster for $25,000 or more.
How do you determine which one is right for you?
Of course, your budget will be a factor, but there are other factors that are equally important.
The first factor is whether you want a portable or stationary generator.
If you want a stationary one, where will you put it?
A generator's exhaust gas includes poisonous carbon monoxide, so it must be located outside, in a well ventilated area with plenty of space around it, and protected from the rain.
If you want a portable one,...

AC Power Adapters - Do I Really Need Them?
By now you have decided where you want to go and if you have read my ac adapter article you know whether or not you need to bring along some ac power adapters.
Unfortunately, like many things in life, there are no exact rules governing travel adapters.I recommend bringing power adapters even if you know your destination uses the same kind of ac plug.
Many tropical vacation destinations only have power outlets without a ground.
Therefore if you have a grounded plug (like on your laptop) you will need an ac power adapter to convert it for a non-grounded outlet.
North Americans please remember that many of your appliances with non-grounded plugs are polarized.
(ie. They can only fit in one way).
You may need an ac wall adapter in many countries as their outlets will not accept polarized plugs. If you are traveling to Great Britain you should be extra careful about which ac adapters you bring.
Britain doesn't have a standardized...
