Longest You've Gone Without Power (revived)
my power just went out for 9 hours!
that suked teribley Lol |
5 horrible days. 4 of them where due to a blackout and 1 was because the damn electrical company took the power out in our building. Its a hilarious thing really cause I thought I missed a lot but it wasn't.
|
Two days ago our power was out for eight hours, it was kind of nice resorting to outside activities.
|
Four days straight during a ice storm in '93. Very traumatic time for me, and I'm still seeing my shrink about it.
|
A day, I think? It was winter, but we had a generator so it wasn't a problem.

I was in that. So I say about 12 hours? |

That last black out we had in NY. Lasted for most of the day, but I can't remember exactly how long.
|
About 1 day i think it was boring.
|
Two days, and man was it boring.. xD; it allowed me to take some time away from all the electronics and just read, draw, whatever I could do in the light of a flashlight/candle, though. That was probably a good thing, in some way.
But yeah.. two days is our record, somehow we've never been hit hard enough to be powerless for a week or two. |
I have gone about one day without power it wasn't cool.
|
3 Days of an ice storm. It was weird, because the grid was all messed up. Our neighbors had power, but not us.
There were trees blocking our road, and the house was like 40˚ F by the end. ;_; Spoiler:
|
3 days. I was trapped in my house by a blizzard. Well, I will not have to worry about that again (Hopefully)
|
Only a few hours.
A fuse blew and shorted out the power to the rest of the house and I didn't have the keys to the garage, so I couldn't get to the power box. I found the keys in the end and everything worked out fine. :D |
About three hours? I'm not entirely sure, but luckily, we don't lose power all that often. ^^
|
A couple days.
Our house was stuck by lightning when I was around five or six... and it took forever to get everything back up-and-running in that old place. Luckily, I didn't do too many things that required electricity back then, so I was perfectly content. (b'')b |
Two days, if you don't count my DS and GBA working. Power cut.
|
We don't get many power cuts round here, so I'd say a couple of hours, 3 tops.
|
Back in like '03-'04 we had that huge blackout in the US that lasted about two days. There's been one since then that was a bit longer, but by then I wasn't as addicted to the Internet as I had been. xD If I had one today, I'd probably just curl up in the corner with my DS. Assuming it was charged.
|
10 minutes.
Seriously. And this was at midnight, so it was ok. |
30 min or an hour lol xD not that bad
|
Um... I think it was 4 days at the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness.
|
Only about 1 hour.
I didn't freak out or anything, cause I wasn't attached to my computer. I'll be reduced to tears if another blackout happens when I'm awake. |
About 1 hour or maybe even 3? Because the power was cut in the middle of the night a few years ago(Also the last time it happened) and In the morning it was working fine.
|
5 days or so, and the experience was miserable. Even if I opened the windows to get a breeze, the air was so humid and thick. My power was out because of a hurricane.
