Preparedness Highlights & Critical Gear
Ensure your household is fully equipped for power outages, evacuations, or extended grid failures:
Backup Power & Charging Stations
Keep essential appliances running, power medical devices, and stay connected when lines go down.
- Portable Generators & Inverters – High-wattage tri-fuel and dual-fuel generators from Westinghouse and Genmax equipped with CO shutoff safety sensors.
- Solar & Portable Power Stations – Quiet, emission-free EcoFlow DELTA battery stations, jump starters, and heavy-duty power banks.
- Batteries – Keep reliable, long-lasting batteries featuring 15-years of shelf life, perfect for emergency, medical needs and uninterrupted playtime during a blackout situation.
Emergency Water & Shelf-Stable Food Storage
FEMA recommends keeping at least a 3-day supply of clean drinking water and non-perishable food per person.

Lighting, Utilities & First Aid
Navigate dark conditions safely and address minor injuries or property maintenance needs.
- Emergency Lighting & Fans – Solar rechargeable LED lanterns, tactical flashlights, and high-velocity utility fans to maintain airflow during power losses.
- Batteries, Tools & Sanitation – Bulk Energizer and Member's Mark AA/AAA battery packs, pressure washers, heavy-duty tarps, and comprehensive first aid kits.
Build Your 72-Hour Emergency Kit Early
Disaster management agencies strongly recommend maintaining at least a 72-hour supply of water, non-perishable food, and essential backup equipment for every person and pet in your household. Waiting until a tropical storm or severe front approaches often leads to long checkout lines and empty store shelves. By stocking up on emergency food vaults, case-pack water, and high-lumen flashlights early in the season, you guarantee your family remains safe and comfortable through extended grid outages.
