Have at least one phone with a cord or a fully charged cell phone available for use during power outages. Add an Energi to Go® battery-operated cell phone charger to your power outage kit.
Generators are helpful during a power outage unless used improperly. Never plug your generator into an outlet in your home - this can send dangerous electricity over the utility company's lines once reconnected. Have a qualified electrician install a power transfer switch in your home to prevent danger and injury
