Ice Strom in Southrn Ontario
Just wondering if any forum members are without power to their homes and living in their RV's with the generator going. We are lucky and did not lose power but our RV is covered in l/2 inch of ice....

We lost power for about 10 minutes,all has been fine since.Son in Kitchener was without for several hours.He phoned to see if I had a generator yet so he could power up the heat lamp for their bearded dragon. Nothing about keeping the furnace on or the fridge cold , but keeping the lizard warm was top on the priority list. He borrowed my Canadian tire booster pack and inverter to run a 75 Watt heat lamp. Found out that the battery pack isn't as big as I thought it was, because it dropped the voltage to the alarm state on the inverter within 45 minutes. Guess it is good for boosting purposes only, not for use as a reasonable amount of back up power. Should have given him one of the batteries out of the camper that are sitting in the garage fully charged.
Hope the power is soon restored in Toronto. Not the way young ones should remember Christmas!!
