It’s a risk I’ll take. My electric pressure cooker was purchased in 1967
and still going strong. If my power goes out, you can bet I won’t be
staying at home, as we have an all-electric home and nothing will be
operable. I’ll be headed for the nearest motel that has power. I’m sure
not going to bother cooking on the gas grill or buying a Coleman stove to
do makeshift cooking. Not worth my time or effort.
