Problem: Recovering from natural disasters, such as hurricanes, can require a variety of equipment that the average household does not have room to store. Flooded basements require that water be pumped out; water stains must be removed as a result of the flooding; emergency power sources must be
employed.
Suggestion: The majority of homeowners in the US purchase gasoline powered lawn mowers. I propose that a lawnmower manufacturer offer a model that incorporates a "power take off" connection on the mower, or design the mower so it will easily and quickly bolt to: a pressure washer pump, electrical generator, or water pump accessory unit. Having one power source driving these units is much less expensive/more efficient/less space demanding than each unit having it's own independent power source. At least four devices could be driven by the same engine, as needs require. The accessory devices would be useful during everyday life as well.
