A MUST-HAVE TO BE PREPARED

Be prepared by having a dependable backup power source like Schumacher. Since 1947, Schumacher has been powering lifestyles with its broad range of industry-leading power conversion products that are affordable, feature-rich, and prepare consumers for any situation. Cheryl recommends the SL1612 Rugged Lithium Jump Starter and USB Power Source.

It can charge up any device and light up a work area in the event of an emergency. For more information, visit www.schumacherelectric.com.

CLEAN UP TOOLS

Having quality equipment for cleanup is essential, and Cheryl's favorite line comes from Husqvarna. They make innovative forest, lawn, and garden products that can make all the difference in an emergency. In fact, this is the Husqvarna 455 Rancher chainsaw, a favorite in the Rancher Chainsaw series. It is versatile, fuel efficient, and produces low emissions, making it a better choice for the environment. It is comfortable to use even in tough conditions, and they are offering 20% off now through September 6th, so it is the perfect time to get one.

INNOVATIVE NEW TECHNOLOGIES

Innovative technology is key and there is an amazing new way to store power. Savant Power Storage delivers the ability to use stored electricity from the grid and solar during power outages due to extreme weather events. It comes with the award-winning Savant App that lets you monitor and control energy production and consumption in real-time.
