They are very expensive and probably not worth it unless you need the piece of mind and don’t care about the cost. A portable generator with a dedicated plug would be a better choice. If you are not comfortable using a portable generator then get a large electric solar power system. All you do is plug it in and it will run most everything except the AC for 24 hrs if you are conservative with usage. Recharge using portable solar panels in the yard! They cost double the price of a gas generator but have advantages.
