Ice storm hit springfield on friday. Ice is two inches on branches. Lost power on friday evening, won't have power till middle or end of the week. I have a heat solution, but I really need an inexpensive power source. Possibly a power inverter for my truck so I can use it like a generator or something. I have a three year old and a wife and both are sick. I need some help. Any clever people out there or (fingers crossed) generous individuals with a spare generator for donation? Thanks for your consideration people.

If you get a gasoline powered generator be careful about connection to your house and exhaust fumes. Never use a double male plug to back feed the electrical panel. Ensure there is adequate ventilation for exhaust and never operate the generator indoors. Read my home generator page for other safety and connection ideas.

Use the same power you have used to post this to run your heaters.
You can also buy power inverters that turn 12 volts d/c to 120 volts A/C

Do you have any family to move in with for a few days or are able to spend a few nights in a hotel?
