Living in Sebring Florida and having survived ground zero for three cat 2 to 3 
hurricanes in 13 years including Irma, I have had good results running a back 
up generator shared with my next door neighbor. 
I have switched from whole house AC to mini splits. My Florida room has a 110v 
minisplit by Desuki that I was able to use to keep the room at 72 degrees 
during a 10 day power outage. 
On the same line I ran plugin lights in the room, tv system, line to main house 
refrigerator, and into my shack to run my K-line barefoot, where I relayed 
weather info between county EOC and National Weather Center, as well as traffic 
into and out of National Hurricane Center.  
My wife and I enjoyed our two recliners in comfortable conditions until the 
power was restored. The AC mini splits have now replaced my central AC in the 
whole house and my utility bill has dropped by one third.
