Silly question, Does the power ever go out at the warehouses? It's storming like heck here now and we sometimes have a lot of power outrages when its storms or we get heavy winds down here.

It does go out and there is enough emergency power for some lights but not enough to run the belts. They can try to do a little but mostly it is just marking time until the power comes back on.

If it is a long outage UPS can try to rent some generators but normally they wouldn't have any ready to go. Not worth it to have generators just sitting idle for the once in a decade you might need them.

When they do try so get some, the outage is over by the time setup is done.

Do you live in the Northeast? Only reason I ask is that we had a line of severe storms pass through my area a few hours ago.

water is a good idea but i would bring gatorade or something with sodium and potassium. banana , oranges, apples , are good. you'll sweat a lot and lose important minerals so they need to be replenished and water is great but won't do that.

Is that what you did all those years you spent on the preload?
