More about the book

Following the simple plans in this guide will help ensure your safety during long-term power outages. The US electric grid faces unprecedented risks from aging infrastructure, severe weather, and various threats, making future outages likely and potentially more extensive than ever before. When the grid fails, and fuel for generators runs out, what will you do? This book offers the solution. Energy expert Jeffrey Yago explores the history of residential battery power and highlights the reliability of battery-powered devices for lighting, communication, refrigeration, safety, and entertainment during emergencies. He provides multiple strategies to keep your batteries charged and ready for use. While many resources on emergency preparedness and solar power exist, often offering only brief overviews, this guide delivers comprehensive, easy-to-understand information for establishing a battery-powered home before widespread outages occur. It serves as an essential resource for maintaining your refrigerator, lights, and more when the grid goes down.
