I just thought I would put up a rudimentary back up power solution with things being the way they are.

This is not a "power everything in your home replacement", but a emergency back up. You will have to keep on point with your power usage. Lessen some loads and perhaps figure out alternatives for some things but the system I set up is enough to run a large size RV trailer which is more than enough for someone to live on.

The system I have in place is 4 Deep Cycle Lead Acid batteries with 2 solar cells, a charge controller and a 1500w inverter. The inverter is up to you. Your ideas about what you will need will be different so you will have to total power draw in a minimal situation and then upscale to taste.

This system without the inverter cost us approximately $750

The nice part of this system is that it doesn't need to be just solar for charging the battery bank. It is a standard 12 volt system at 400 Amp Hours (wired in parallel) You can hook it up to a generator or even your car. In my case I can even switch to propane because I have a alternate fuel conversion for my vehicle.

There are so many different options for getting around this insanity, you just have to do the research. Hell its not above consideration to run a generator on steam if you are up to the task of manufacturing the apparatus.

Anyway, just some odd info I thought you all might be able to use.
