The Garmin and Dynon systems typically have a light weight Lithium Ion backup battery that can keep them operating for 45 minutes or longer. That shouldn't add more than 2 lbs to the installation.

Larry: if I remember correctly, the G2000 in the plane that I flew has a backup battery somewhere in the back, because part of the preflight checks involve testing the backup power source. Maybe that's what adds extra weight when the system is installed in a certified aircraft. Everything relies on the glass panel, so it's got to have redundant power for IFR operations. I'm just guessing though.
