I've been thinking about wars leading to rolling blackouts for civilians, and went searching for how Ukrainians have been dealing with it.

I found this video:

So the first solution was to get large rechargeable power blocks like the ecoflow, with smaller power banks for his router and LED strip lighting. Then the outages got longer and he got a generator, (and then another better generator because the ecoflow is picky about what power it will accept)

I also found myself envious that a random Ukrainian in a smallish looking neighborhood had fiber to the house.

Dang the USA is backwards.
