    Usually, electricity dead when my phone is not 100%. I usually charged when it drop close to 30%, though. So it depends, on my luck...
    Meanwhile, my laptop always connected to electricity. If the power goes down, the battery is 100% pre-charged .

    I have two 20k mAH powerbanks just for this actually. I am satisfied with my decision.

    Invest in candles and read a book. A real book made of paper.

    Download porn for your mobile, so whenever the power is out you can still have 'fun' (Insert Lenny)

    Luddite :p

    Anyway, in my flat i have battery backup, and we have CNG generator for the whole block, so power outage is not really a problem.

    I don't really have issues with power. My ISP on the other hand... For both occassions, I have an old e-ink Kindle with almost a dozen completed series on it.

    I don't mind if I don't have internet during power outage, but I can't handle the hotness inside the house. Can't lived without electric fan.

    heh I have the same problem just not that bad though. One day out of the year my ISP is guarantee to have its internet down for a day.

    Only reason I am mention a power outage is there was a large fire in station for power that causes the power here to be out for a while.
