Three that I use, an older Halo that I use just for my Fitbit and I bought the two Halos with the flashlight and gave one away as a gift. I have a power bank that I use occasionally for my tablets if I need it. I do have two small lipstick size for travel  because small but haven't used them in years.

I charge, cell phone, two tablets, and kindle from the wall outlet. I rarely use power banks but like to have them on hand.

I text with the Cell and get notifications. Take it in the car. I use a Land Line as my main registered phone number as screens my calls better, but am afraid one day they will no longer an option.

Used the Cell once  or so when power was out for updates on when  it will be resumed. I had a squirrel hit the power box and had to call in the outage on my Cell.

I've lived in my house 40 years and the only time my power has gone out was when the electric company swapped out a transformer and they give you plenty of notice or someone doing construction (usually the city) accidentally cuts a power line. Our power lines are underground so no poles to go down.

@Meowingkitty  I wish our power lines were underground.  A few years ago, my area had a power outage after a storm in the middle of the summer that lasted for days.  I said never again.  I got a whole house generator, and it has been worth every penny.

@dodies   We don't have any. If a storm is predicted, we charge up whatever we need to ahead of time.
