A Storm is Coming!!

[The Weatherman]

You may want to consider unplugging overnight.

I have powered down my EVSE’s just out of abundance of caution.

Just a heads up.

I'm leaving mine plugged in for a little bit of extra juice.

The Aurora is predicted to be pretty far south. The view line covers the northern 1/3 of the CONUS.

I unplugged and also put my solar and backup system into off-grid mode. There's not really a reason not to, even if being just a little too cautious.

I could see the lights tonight...near Pittsburgh:

Down in Arizona we got an iridescent glow in the clouds to the naked eye, and this to the camera.

What are people’s thoughts on a whole house circuit breaker?

Is anyone using that on the main feed before the EVSE gets power?

Those of you that understand this, what does the worst scenario case mean? You get juice in neural in the house and fry sensitive electronics? Has it happened to anyone before?

Maybe an over reaction, but I unplug my toaster too , just in case it get’s toasted—

No power or charging issues, but this was nice:

The worst case scenario is that you wake up in the morning and notice you don't need to turn on a light, because you're glowing in the dark.

There is no risk to your home or devices. There are risks to utility systems, but the chance that yours fails and sends a surge through to you is very, very, very small.

I can imagine people in Alaska laughing at us lower 48ers over this over reaction.
