Well, I was thinking more along the lines of idling the car outside after the hurricane is over. Sometimes it takes several days to get the power back on after a hurricane. But your right: He still needs some kind of internet connectivity. Phone lines and cable are also likely to go out during and after a hurricane. Also, you could rig one of these inverters to work with an uninstalled car battery. I imagine you could run a laptop and router for several hours from a fully charged car battery. Then again, it would probably be easier and maybe cheaper to evacuate book a hotel room away from the hurricane area with internet access.
