Our friend Jack Spirko has once again had Steven Harris on the podcast as a guest.
This time, Steven discusses using batteries as a backup power source for your home.
As usual, he also has so much information that he needed 2 shows to cover everything.
Here are the links...very informative!

Thankyou Denob, a tremendously important and informative instruction. I've got to go back & take notes as well as get the video. I was feeling overwhelmed and intimidated by the whole back up power portion of prepping as I don't know an amp from a volt from a watt and wasn't sure where to start learning. Well, what you've offered here is a reliable source of information tailored specifically to the needs of preppers. I'm going to study up and try to better grasp this information so I can have confidence in understanding, purchasing & using an appropriate backup power system.
+1 for Steve Harris.
This is about the best real world info you'll find. Listen and learn.
Steven has been on TSP several times discussing generators, batteries, blackouts, you name it.
One of my favorites is about using your car for a power source during an emergency.
