My last blackout was a long, long time ago; so long ago that I cannot remember when it happened. Do I need a backup lighting system? I probably don’t but I have a little brother who still bears the scar of an encounter with a mosquito net bracket that he had when he was three years old. I now live in an earthquake prone country, so it is probably a good idea to get prepared, so that I can have some lights come on around me when my apartment falls to pieces around me. The Energizer Light on Demand system looks like it will do a pretty good job in the next big one. You plug the light sticks into your wall sockets. In the event of a power failure, the internal battery activates and you get up to twenty hours of light. I can’t imagine myself needing longer than twenty hours, but just in case you do, you can plug in regular batteries once the internal battery expires.
They will be available in Target this month, until then there is no word on pricing.
