Hurricane Helene, how did we communicate with the outside world?

Good idea.

@@williamkraus6469 it worked good, I am surprised they aren’t marketed that way.

@@828findadventure We used a gas inverter generator for a week or so, then put a big generator on the house. The little one sipped gas and the big one drank it. I like the solar idea a lot. We used solar powered camp lights and flashlights for a lot of the time until we got the power back on. They worked great. Of course, we didn’t have phone service at the house for almost two weeks, so we had to walk down to Sweeten Creek to get it every day. Finally got our WiFi back yesterday. I have decided that I don’t like hurricanes or tornados. Glad you guys made it through okay.

@@williamkraus6469 I’m really on the fence now about getting a whole house generator and adding another solar panel to my collection. Glad you made it through.

@@828findadventure Thanks. Glad you guys are ok, also. The solar stuff takes a long time to charge, but in an emergency, since sunlight is free, are invaluable. Keep strong, my friend. God bless you and yours as we all continue in this recovery.

I enjoy your videos, but may I make a suggestion. The red box around the thumbnails bothers me. KZbin shows a 'progress bar' in red under videos I have watched, or partially watched. With the red box around the thumbnails, it makes it hard for me to quickly see which of your videos I have or have not watched because the bar blends in with your red thumbnail outline. Anyway, thanks for taking time to make videos, and I hope you will take this into consideration.
