Alternative heating methods (43)
Scottishlass: Now I know many of you live in a much colder climate than I do, so I am calling on your "expertise" in this matter.
Last night we had a terrible wind & rain storm and a tree branch knocked out a power line, so I had no heat, and for me, it got very cold in my apt. I'm sure for some of you 58 degrees inside would be warm, but for someone from Miami, Fl that's ccccccold.
Obviously my power has since been restored and I have all the heaters turned on full blast to warm this place up quickly.
All the heat sources in the apt. are electric, there is no fireplace. So, should the power go out again, I need to find a SAFE "back-up" heating source, any suggestions???

If your computer is a laptop make sure its charged and take it to bed with you, should put out heat for a couple of hours on battery. It's not a lot but it does help, I've done it!

jbibiza: you can get very portable gas heaters
I second that idea. They're relatively cheap to own and run, and can provide substantial heat in the event of a blackout.

Well, I guess the problem is solved, my brother just came knocking on my door and he just bought me a kerosene heater and wants to show me how to use it.
He also bought me an extra fire extinguisher.
Be back later after I learn about my new heater.

Glad your brother came through for you! They put out a lot of heat, just be sure you have a little ventilation especially when you first start it up.
