Lights-On Home: The Illustrated Guide to Home Backup Power

English

Power outages in the U.S. are getting longer, and most homes still have no plan. Lights-On Home is a plain-English, illustrated e-book that shows you how to keep the essentials running — your fridge, lights, internet, and medical devices — when the power goes out.

Inside, you'll learn how to:

- Understand watts and watt-hours in 10 minutes, with simple examples

- Calculate exactly how much power your home needs, using a step-by-step worksheet

- Choose the right setup for your budget: a starter kit, a portable solar kit, or a permanent system

- Set up a portable solar kit with an illustrated plan, a parts list, and 6 easy steps — no rewiring

- Stay safe with clear rules on generators, carbon monoxide, and when to call an electrician

- Get ready in one week with a 7-day action plan

Written for everyday homeowners, with large type and an illustration on every page. No electrical experience needed.

Format: digital e-book (PDF), instant access after purchase.
