What prep items did you get recently?

Not very sexy but I added some non- clumping kitty litter to my vehicle emergency kit to help with traction on ice/snow if I get stuck.

Is this better than sand?

How funny would it be if it is better than sand and the lobbyists push a bill to replace sand trucks with kitty litter trucks.

They can’t do that - just think of all the cats that would get run over just going about their daily business..

****Not for the beach. Sand is much better for that.

Says it comes with 2x 200W panels =400W. You'd be able to run a 400W load for about 4hrs on an avg day. A little longer in the summer. Thats about 65W 24x7 with average weather.

I remember once, after a snow storm I bought a big bag of kitty litter at Walmart. The cashier looked at it and asked, "Car get stuck?" My reply was, "Nope. My cats need somewhere to take a dump."

Jackery?

It's a lot lighter than sand by volume so it's a lot easier to transport and the "grains" are larger than sand.

I took advantage of the weather and freeze-dried some denim this morning. It's supposed to keep indefinitely this way.

If it's freeze dryed it will last 25 years. So it's better than dehydration.

Bluetii looks like it will put out about 10 amps.
I have been debating on the patriot brand ( 2400 watts) or maybe just building my own.

I already have a Home Depot 3 solar panels and 12 volt charger set up. just need to figure out lithium battery pack to put together a fuel less generator. Thinking 5,000 watt battery set up with convertor to match.
Dc to ac convertor seems to be biggest expense in system.
