Help! Power outage in Woodstock!

[yrevanth]

All,

We have a power outage in Woodstock today. I do not have any battery backups for my mp40s. I was wondering if I could either borrow a back up or buy one immediately.

thanks,
Rev

They say anywhere between 11:00 pm to 1 am.. the transformer near our house blew out.

If you can't get a battery backup, I'd get a D-battery operated air pump, put an air stone on it and drop it in the tank. That'll keep the oxygen in the water and I've used just an air stone for quite a few hours when the weather is warm. I do have an inverter that I use for power outages but you'd need to clip it on to a car battery. In the past I've used the trolling motor batteries from my boat during long outages.

Hey Rev. I have a portable generator as well that you’re welcome to borrow.
