some people have gas powered generators just during this type of cases, me personally i havent been in a power outaged for longer than an hour, usually i just grab some water and pour it up high to provide oxygen

I have 3 battery powered air pumps for sale right now! with full batteries!

These things work great! and I've only had to use them once.

I'll sell all three of them for $10 - that saves you $9 in shipping and includes batteries :)
