From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

Welcome! Storms are always far more "fun" to follow when you ~~are afraid you are going to die~~ have skin in the game.

Let's see. Sales tax relief week starts May 31. Get some lanterns like these, which are awesome. And make sure you get flood insurance. If you are renting, make sure you get rental insurance.

Good luck! Hurricanes honestly bring out the best in Floridians, so when the big one is coming, we do pull together.

I don't know where you live but the last time my power went out was during hurricane Julia in 2016 and before that hurricane Fay in 2008 (briefly). So, not "more common" here.

I use these LED camping lanterns. They're great: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NPLSZF8

Fair enough. Let's go places.

1. Direct alternate: book on tape. Plan ahead and have one ready to go. Batteries are not that expensive.
2. Got an SO? THIS is the time to be romantic. Grab all the pillows, put them in a semi-circle around the fireplace, and open a bottle of wine and declare DEFCON-1 cuddle time.
3. FYI: Darkness is not necessary. VONT 4-pack LED camping lanterns for 28 bucks. That's $7 a lantern, and they come with the three AA batteries. They are BRIGHT, and last for hours. Here is a link if it doesn't get removed: VONT 4-pack

For lights, I recommend LED lanterns similar to these. They come in a dozen different brands; I just picked the first ones listed. They worked beautifully in Feb.

If you have a few dollars, buy this four pack of camping lamps: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NPLSZF8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

VERY bright and small enough to be portable. I hung a few on the bedroom doors. That plus a headlamp (Amazon had a bunch of them....and then all the el cheapos sold out) will be seemingly a great starting point for darkness in your home and you won't need to worry about candles + can take it outside easily.

Forgive me if I'm just not finding it, but the only thing I can find (or the closest, in terms of looks, at least) is this generic lantern, which has great reviews but isn't a Thorfire it's just visually similar.

Searched both Thorfire Lantern, THorfire HL02, and a few others to try and find it - the only Thorfire lantern that shows up are the colorful ones that have the accordion-style light cover.

I got a set of these for my folks in case of rolling black outs. So far only had to use it once, batteries lasted overnight. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NPLSZF8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fab_lhbzFb2QCCFNM

We love these little lanterns. They also make lanterns like this that are rechargable via USB.

Thing above stove is a pull out lantern, I believe. I have a couple for car camping, and they are ok for that, but they're very heavy and unnecessary.

These collapsable lanterns and this rechargeable spotlight are awesome.

I live in Texas and last year hell literally froze over. No power for 2 days, though other areas were without power for longer. Had to quickly fix a busted pipe in our attic before the ceiling collapsed. The aforementioned lanterns/flashlight were our saving grace during that time.

Instead of running everything electric, can you replace a few things with an alternative fuel/power source? Like run some buddy heaters(as someone else said- the are other options too, like kerosene). Swap out the electric hotplate for a camp stove. Probably skip the microwave altogether. Use battery operated lamps, flashlights or headlamps. On Amazon, there are solar lanterns, you can set then out in the daylight and bring them in at night.

I don't think the battery banks you're looking at can support the load you want to put on them. But you weren't very specific about what you plan to get. You might spend more on then than you would a whole home system.

this thing you can get 2 for ~$2,500. If you get 4 that's $5,000. That's about where a whole home system hovers if you search it up on Google. You save a bunch if you install it yourself(it looks like). But also, these battery bank things are only good for one charge. Your plan is 12 hours. The power was off for 2 weeks in some places. Please don't get married to this idea.

I think diversifying your preps would be the best option. Having an electrical back up is great but I don't think you can run all the things you want unless you drop the coin to get the whole home system sized and installed by a professional.

got these so far

I use this one from Amazon

Great battery life, uses AA battery, and very very bright in all directions, so it offers great lighting.
