Blackout Readiness Load Planner

A step-by-step planner that totals the watt-hours needed for a realistic outage scenario and turns device lists into a portable power station sizing target. It saves progress locally, prints cleanly, and focuses on practical backup loads rather than abstract specs.

Blackout Readiness Load Planner

Plan a realistic outage setup by listing the devices you actually need to keep alive. Instead of guessing from marketing categories, this planner adds up daily energy use and compares it with common portable power station sizes.

How to use it: Enter each device's name, running watts, and hours of use per day. Set the outage duration in days to estimate the total battery energy required. Results are best treated as a planning baseline; refrigerator compressors, startup surges, inverter losses, and cold weather can all push the real requirement higher.

Adds a margin for inverter losses and real-world inefficiency.
