So the lights go out… is it a downed line? A storm rolling through? Or is it something much worse? Whether it’s a short-term outage or full-on societal collapse, the question remains: how much power do you really need to survive?
In this video, I break down your energy needs across different blackout scenarios—from a few hours to a few months or more. Starting with the basics of 1 to 3-day outages (the kind you might experience a few times a year), we cover the essentials to keep boredom and discomfort at bay. Think phones, laptops, USB fans, LED lights, and a few power packs to keep things going.
But what happens after a week or more? That’s when true preparedness begins. We go deeper into off-grid energy setups—solar panels, power stations, fuel storage, communication tools like ham radios and FRS, heating solutions, and more. This isn’t just about prepping for doomsday—it’s about being ready for the most likely challenges life can throw your way.
By the end of this video, you’ll know exactly what kind of power setup you need to weather any storm—whether it's a weekend outage or the end of the grid as we know it.
🔋 Be ready. Stay powered. Survive anything.
