Same here. I think I had ours running for 45 minutes before it came back on. I was convinced I didn't have any gas in the shed and thought I'd have to go get some but the wife quickly put a stop to that because she was terrified of being home alone in the dark . I found a full can in the back of the shed though, so it worked out.

Yep!! Something bigger is going on with DEMCO recently because we’ve been losing power at least twice a week for the past couple months and how this outage - again. Although this one does look a little larger than the last one, it’s very similar.


Edit: HA! Back on

Yeah I mean I know people have special circumstances (medical, etc) where they absolutely need power, but for the ones who don't it's a bit ridiculous to go pull a generator out the second the power goes off. Food in the fridge stays good for 4 hours, don't be a puss, we can survive 45 minutes in the dark without AC.

Get used to it. When the meta site is complete we will be without power or water on a regular basis.
