Need an electrical socket! Alexandria, VA

I'm new to the Northern Virginia area. I recently purchased an UDM kit with pads and polishes, but i have no place to use it. I can't find a single electrical output in my garage. Does anyone know where i can go in the dc metro area?

I'd greatly appreciate it

Re: Need an electrical socket! Alexandria, VA

Do you have a light bulb that you can unplug?

How about a inverter that runs off the car battery?

Re: Need an electrical socket! Alexandria, VA

i can't unplug any light bulbs in my garage. the management also has a policy of no car work of any kind so doing it inside my garage is out of the question.


the inverter idea sounds promising.
