wtb battery backup

If you are at home when the power goes out I would suggest a portable generator . Be careful though, a cheap generator has a very poor current stream ( A electric guru will have the proper name for it), with this unstable stream electrical components are subject to large flucuations that they might not like. I use a 2800 watt inverter by yamaha and do not have these problems. The size you need will depend on the total wattage you are using. Best not to max out the output of the generator. two and a half gallons of fuel will last over 9 hours at part throttle with this generator.
