Battery or generator?
Batteries are silent, automatic and need almost no maintenance, and they can recharge from solar. Their limit is capacity: a battery covers hours to a day or two of essentials, depending on its size and your loads. A standby generator runs as long as it has fuel. In parts of Michigan where multi-day winter outages are possible, some homeowners choose both. We will go through your loads and outage history in Big Bay and give you a straight recommendation.
