When I was charging my #emergency #lights (for the huge storm that was supposed to hit us) the other week, one failed to charge & instead turned itself on & then couldn’t be turned off, because it hadn’t been turned on. πŸ€ͺ

So each time I tried to charge it, it turned itself on & drained the charge.

Very strange.

It was a #GoalZero #Lighthouse600.

I have a replacement on the way, a #PrincetonTec #HelixLI.

Two very different looking emergency / #camping lights.

#ExtremeWeather event for #Victoria. #PowerOutages expected.

So far, so good. I spent a few hours charging lamps & lanterns last night.

More than I expect us to need but extras if the neighbours need light or to use the lights to charge their phones.

2 x #GoalZero #LightHouse600 & 2 x #BioLite #AlpenGlow500
