New Generator for the Maine Homestead

As we have seen with some of the recent storms and natural disasters having a form of alternative emergency separate from the grid can be critical to minimizing the impact of power outages. While we have spent less than two years on our property and continue to work on developing the homestead, we only have a small generator of 2000W. It has worked well through a couple of major power outages and kept the deep freeze and refrigerator going with no issues.

With the possibility of a larger, long-term power outage we’ve wanted a larger generator for some time. Our cabin actually uses a fairly low amount of power.

A friend and co-worker who understands we moved to Maine and are basically starting over from scratch has gifted us a Coleman 6750-watt generator. This generator has definitely seen some usage. Importantly, it has been well maintained. My buddy just had it serviced with spark plug checked and oil changed. Since he purchased a new Generac, he offered the Coleman to us no charge.

I was beyond grateful.

I’ll contact a local electrician and look at options to tie it into the house.

Of course, we seek to have redundancy in all systems and will maintain the smaller generator as well – just in case.

As I type this a new Cat 5 hurricane is barreling towards Florida. This highlights the need to prepare as we live in extremely uncertain times.

With that said……take care all!

💥 A prepper retreat is a designated location where individuals with a shared mindset for preparedness come together to provide mutual support during challenging times. It serves as a secure and well-equipped refuge for those who are proactive in anticipating and readying themselves for various emergencies, be they natural disasters or societal crises. The core principle of a prepper retreat revolves around the notion of like-minded individuals collaborating, pooling resources, and offering assistance to one another during adverse circumstances. In essence, it is a community of individuals who function as a cohesive team, ensuring each member's well-being and resilience in the face of adversity.
💥A long-term grid-down collapse is a scenario that poses significant challenges to modern society. It can result from various factors such as economic instability, natural disasters, or social unrest. To increase your chances of survival, it's essential to have a well-prepared survival group and retreat. This guide provides a variety of ideas to consider when your group arrives to the retreat as well as some of the factors and conditions that may be encountered. As a bonus there is an additional BONUS guide that covers many of the important aspects to putting that survival group together.
Countless hours were spent putting this checklist and corresponding information together and it’s based on real-world experience. We are here to help get you prepared.
What happens when some catastrophic events occur and people begin to arrive at a retreat location? Who does what and when? Situational details will dictate quite a bit, however, having some form of checklist with corresponding information will help remember things, decrease stress, and allow people to use their brains for thinking.

Why have this Retreat Arrival Checklist? 🤔

💥It’s important to set procedures before you need them. Having a copy on hand at the retreat for common access, it can be utilized to provide guidance and direction when retreat members are under incredible stress.

💥 It isn’t likely that all members will arrive at once… so the checklist can be used to begin work as the first members arrive. Also, there is no guarantee everyone will arrive, and the work still has to be done. It’s important to stay busy to keep minds focused and not overthinking about the future.
Thank you for stopping by and please let me know if there is anything you need. We are in this together.
