31. If there is flooding, you might not be able to go to one.

My daughter bought me a portable charger for in my car. I can use it to inflate a low tire or charge the car battery. It has an outlet to plug in an electric light cord etc. It is usually in my trunk but I bring it into the house if we are expecting storms. Living in a rural area, power failures occur almost every year. It might be wise to get one. I not only could use it to recharge my hearing aids, I also have a smart watch that my kids got me for Mother's day after I had fallen on the deck. It can automatically call an ambulance and give them my GPS location if I ever trip over something again. So having a little charger is a really good thing for me. I love being able to answer my wrist and not have to get up to find my cell phone.
