Not sure how much power your equipment uses or how big your panels are,
but assuming the power requirements are similar to UBNT you should be
able to use 2x12V marine deep cycles which you can pick up at tractor
supply/menards for about roughly $100 apiece.
A wind turbine wouldn't be a bad idea either, but is going to cost you
more. You can get a wind turbine for roughly $400, generally come with
charge controller that takes both wind and solar for inputs. But you'll
also be looking at atleast another $100 for a pole to mount, on, wiring
accessories, etc to get it installed. Batteries would be cheaper
solution especially for a temporary situation.

Could you replace the batteries to get runtime that would last

array, I can't say for certain but I have several 24v solar sites
that can go 3-4 days without needing attention...

Subject: Re: [Mikrotik Users] Powerbox staggering power on ports
I guess I don’t understand what you are asking. You say you don’t
want to write a script, but then you talk about timed power
shutoffs. What mechanism are you suggesting you would use to do
that other than a script?

I'm thinking of shutting power off on bootup, then after 60s port
3 on, 60s port 4 on.
