That's a pretty expensive box for "nice to have in a blackout". How much is a diesel generator?

@taylorlightfoot - makes a bit more sense. Still, you need to live in a place with very high prices for electricity and loads of sun for this to be even remotely economically viable.

@taylorlightfoot - well I live in a country with snow in the winter (when I need the most power to heat) and a very stable and (fairly) cheap power. Solar is pretty much a no-go, and if I was to run on battery on expensive days, and fill it up on inexpensive, I might maybe save 20% of the bill. It might make some economic sense if the price was 1/3 or 1/4th of the current price.
