To get much in the way of battery storage is still pretty pricey. Especially if you are talking about an electric heater as opposed to running the fan of say a gas heater.

I wish the solar/battery combo was cheaper. But my small propane generator, can't remember exactly but a few hundred dollars and it's not hard to have enough propane on hand to make it last two or three days cycling the generator on and off. If the power outage was local enough, could potentially buy more propane during the outage.

That much pure battery storage looked expensive. Unfortunately my roof line is shaded by my neighbors trees so I don't think solar is that good of deal for me.

I also keep thinking used car batteries that still have significant storage left in them should show up in second hand markets?
