What’s Your Go-To Backup Power Source?

[GarnetDusk]

When the grid goes down, what's your main backup power? I’ve relied on a mid-size solar generator with deep cycle batteries, but I'm weighing pros/cons of propane vs. gas for longer stretches. Curious what others trust for redundancy—any regrets or lessons learned?

I hear you on weighing propane vs gas—propane stores longer and is cleaner, but finding refills during a crisis worries me more than gas, honestly. Have you noticed any real difference in how long your solar setup lasts, GarnetDusk?
