Loadshedding

February 14, 2019 6:45am CST
Our electrisity company Eskom have implemented loadshedding so our power will be off tonight from 20:00 till 22:00 Luckly we are using a gas stove and i have some lanterns that use parafin so we can make food and have light for the 2 hours the power is going to be off Acording to Eskom the coal that they use to generate power is low

Battery operated candles and tap lights are good too.

That must be hard to live with. Living in Canada, I think sometimes we take it for granted that we have as much power as we want or need, all day everyday. I wish you the best.

Is this your regular problem? If yes then buy generator or purchase inverter.
