Keep A Torch By The Fuse Box


When a fuse blows or the power needs to be turned off for some reason, you don’t want to be frantically turning the house upside down to find a torch or your phone. Martha Stewart’s blog shows us how a little bit of foresight ensures you’ll always be able to see what you’re doing in the fuse box.

I’d also recommend using a metal body torch, if possible, that uses AA or AAA batteries. The metal allows you to attach the torch to the fuse box with a magnet, and AA or AAA lithium batteries will ensure you won’t have to worry about dead batteries for up to 15 years. Where do you keep your touch? Share your contingency plans for sudden power outages in the comments below.
