Hey Will,
In watching your last two live casts you requested we submit suggestions for new videos so here I am. Though you started out trying to assist mostly lower income people living off grid in their van, trailer etc. and that's great, but in case you haven't noticed you have now gained a new and very different audience, older more financially able folks living in homes. I, for example, am a 67 year old engineer (not electrical unfortunately) living on the east coast of Florida where we took direct hits by two hurricanes within about 5 weeks. The power was out for over three weeks, came back on for about a week and a half and then was back off again for another 3 weeks. We made it through of course but that was 17 years ago and what I learned from that is that gas generators are only good for days, not weeks. My 91 year old mother lives here with my wife and I and the loss of power for and extended period of time would be a death knell I'm afraid due to the need to refrigerate medications, run C-PAP machines etc. It would be great if you could do a video for those like me who are not looking for the cheapest and/or easiest but the best and most reliable. Being in the beginning innings of hurricane season, and looking at the madness of the world we live in these days coupled with the very real possibility of another EMP like the Carrington Event of 1859, for many of us developing quality battery backed solar systems will be a matter of life and death. I really hope you can find time to make a video geared toward this, It would be greatly appreciated by many of us, your loyal fans.
Thanks!

Please look into food freeze drying (Harvest Right)and Berkey Water Filters with the porcelain filter candles
