How much battery capacity do I need in a solar generator to power my essentials during a power outage?

Figuring out the right battery capacity (measured in Watt-hours or Wh) starts with identifying what appliances and devices you need to keep running, like your refrigerator, lights, and phone. Add up the wattage of these items and estimate how long you'll need to run them for, then look for a solar generator with a Wh rating that meets or exceeds that need – bigger is always better to ensure you have power to spare, and some models are expandable!
