Hi folks,
In the vein of lower-case-p preparedness (for individual / family / neighborhood level emergencies, not survivalism), I've been looking for a solution for making backup lighting tools (flashlights etc.) obviously available when the power goes out.
For example, the perfect idea would be a cabinet or suchlike which has an "inverse nightlight", that is, a light which only ever comes on if the A/C power feeding it is DISRUPTED.
Then, in the event of a power outage in the night, all my family members would be able to see the (battery backed up) lights of the cabinet, and retrieve from it their flashlights, etc.
Before I set off to build such a thing, is there any such a device, or places I might start to look?
Thank you,
clightnerd
