Hi guys.

In India especially in TamilNadu often there will be power cut in the morning. It will be just boring. The first thing that I will miss is my computer. Its very difficult to spend those time. I will be just roaming here and there in my house itself.

What will you people do??? thumbupthumbup

Yup.. Sorry for the delayed reply. Now the power cut problem has increased I guess. Haha. For me its 7 hours per day now. Morning 6 to 10 and night 9 to 10.30 and inbetween some times they will off it. Lol.

Morning timing is fine with me. Because I will be sleeping till 9. whistle

Night I will just get too bored. Thats really irritating. I will take my mp3 and will listen to music. Thats all. surrender

Hi there,
Yes we have similar problems in Bombay here. And its getting worse day by day. According to sources we may face 6-8 hrs power cut dailythumbdown.
Well as it occurs early in the morning say about from 7-to 10.30 i usally do my morning chores that time. Taking bath and shaving and all these morning chores and they dont need electricity lol.
Then i got to go office and thankfully i have invertor there. Its a huge problem generating in India. If we dont check our population now then we are inviting many more trouble in the future too surrender.

Cheers,
Tutul

I would find a book or write something, maybe go for a walk and see what parts of town have electricity, most stores have their own electric generators (?) and so maybe go shopping then.


myLot reputation of 82/100. vidhyavini (1754)   ranked 508 out of 37,964 in life  1 year ago

Thats great. But we do have power cut here in the nights also. I just can't go anywhere. I will have to sit at home. surrender

First In My Place power wont go in morning hours. Powercuts usually will be in the evening, that too again rare case. Ok whenever there is no power I listen to music in my Sony Walkman [Its kind of IPOD], also i have few movies stored in that. If not I will sit and draw few sketches,(I love drawing in fact), in worst case i will go for sleep... I love sleeping too. But i wont sleep too much, I cant sleep in odd hours too.


myLot reputation of 82/100. vidhyavini (1754)   ranked 508 out of 37,964 in life  1 year ago

I will also listen to music when there is no power. Its just too irritating to do that for hours. Still no other go. Lol.

Happy to have your response. Happy mylotting.

What I will do when there is no powerhappy? Its a good question.In our place the current is getting tripped unnecessarily,yesterday my computer restarted more than 3 times as they were turning off the power and turning it on againangry continuously.I felt so angry, as my computer do not have an UPS.Its makes me run crazy when the power goes.Thankfully we have got an inverter at home so thats relaxing mew00t.I can watch TV when there is no power.Happy myLotting


myLot reputation of 82/100. vidhyavini (1754)   ranked 508 out of 37,964 in life  1 year ago

Hehe. Same here. Just now also it got started again for 2 times. Why do they actually want to off for just 2 seconds?? Thats really irritating. I will on the system again and will open mylot and again its gone.

Oh my God!! surrender

Atleast you have inverter at home. I don't have that too. cry

How come you are watching TV with that?? High load right??


myLot reputation of 72/100. divinchris (1099)   ranked 3,171 out of 37,964 in life  1 year ago

Our Inverter can take up heavy loadhappy,its battery is 50A and it can deliver a lot of power.I can even run my computer with my inverter,but my system will restart due to micro second time difference in changing from main line to the battery line.I cant run my computer UPS with the inverter power.Thats why my system is directly plugged in to the mains.
I dont understand why they are turning off the power for 2 minutes.Are they doing some maintenance work in that 120 secondslol.I wonder what happened to the electricity which we were having in the last year.Some one is making money.


myLot reputation of 82/100. vidhyavini (1754)   ranked 508 out of 37,964 in life  1 year ago

Ya thats sure that someone is making money with that. In our place only we have wind and rain properly. For us itself they couldn't supply power huh??? They must be definitely making money out of it.

I have heard that it will increase to 12 hours in few weeks time. Lol. I will run out of this place. Hehe.
