Our Power Is Out. Totally Blew Our Dry Run

posted 20 days ago by LoneJury 20 days ago by LoneJury +142 / -0

We have the canned goods, the dry goods, the water filter, the ammo, an emergency trunk filled with everything you can think of—drugs, first aid, lanterns, etc.

But I’m sitting here in the dark for hours after a transformer blew in our small village. Totally failed our dry run. I can’t get the lanterns working. Our batteries seem corrupted and I don’t have the right kind of batteries in some instances. And I need a lantern that uses another kind of energy too.

Big fail! I’m off to Home Depot when the lights come on to truly get prepared. Glad this happened today. I thought we were in good shape. Didn’t make it an hour.

You still cant get the Berkey Black filters as they are still under attack by the EPA. We also use one in our RV bc people can be nasty. We use a clear glass Big Berkey in our house and man that tap water can be really yellow brown sometimes.

We have a well on our place but I don't trust it, lots of herbicides and pesticide runoff from 100acre corn/cotton field. That will be last resort. Have a 300 gallon tank we collect off a gutter we'll run through the Berkey.

Filling the bathtub ahead of time can also allow you to flush your toilet. During Snovid here in Tx few years back that came in really handy.

The BlackBerkey filter thing is utterly infuriating...especially as we witness Helene victims trying to get back to safe living. You have to wonder who was behind the decision. The Cheneys/Halliburton would be my guess.

Pleasant Hill Grains has a good summary of this BS at their site:

https://pleasanthillgrain.com/berkey-water-purifier-filter

Berkey water purifiers have been one of our most popular products for many years, and their production has now been halted by the EPA. At Pleasant Hill Grain we believe Berkey purifiers are the most effective, highest quality purifiers on the market. But in some areas (mainly California), government authorities have sought for years to curtail Berkey sales. Those government authorities have offered their justifications, while many others have seen very different motives.

The latest move is that the U.S. EPA has now declared that Berkey water purifiers are a pesticide (seriously…), and therefore under their regulatory authority. Berkey is currently under a government order to cease production. As a result, we (and all distributors) are unable to order more stainless systems. We can can still order Berkey Light—but these remaining Berkey systems are likely to run out soon as well. Berkey has made it very clear that the regulations the government is moving to put in place would mean the end of Berkey.

Berkey’s stock of separate purifier elements is exhausted, and distributors cannot order more.

Berkey is now suing the EPA in federal court in an effort to overturn their policy. It’s unknown when a ruling will be made, and if the EPA decision is allowed to stand, then we expect any remaining Berkey stocks to sell out in days if not hours. So if you want to ensure your personal supply of Berkey systems and replacement elements, our advice is that now is the time to do that. You can read Berkey’s recent statement on these developments here,
