I'd like to know if I'm not thinking straight.
Can I build a small system that can be used only when needed to cover basic lighting, an emegency radio, power a 12V fan, Endless Breeze makes what looks to be a nice one. Maybe even run the circulator pump for my forced hot water heating system if it's winter.
We lost power for a few days last winter and using my generator and running a couple of extension cords we got through it quite nicely but if I can use batteries for the small things I can save my generator for the bigger loads.
It was suggested I look at the Stickies first but they seem too detailed for this basic question.
If this makes sense I'll start moving forward.
