“Helping people to better understand how to use and maintain generators and 12-volt batteries in order to navigate through power outages or everyday situations.”

Hi!  Welcome to Home Battery Bank!

This blog shares what I’ve learned over the last 7 years in the realm of prepping my household for power outages and using alternative power when traveling.

I started my family 8 years ago and when we lost power with a newborn I felt completely helpless and ashamed of myself for not having put any thought into a problem that hits everyone at some point.

It was a kick to the gut when I couldn’t warm my daughter’s bottle as she screamed and wouldn’t take a cold one.

I vowed to dedicate careful thought and action to build up systems of redundancy for our power needs so that I can make sure my family is not put in that position again. 

I have been working as a maintenance technician for the last 6 years and have become very familiar with troubleshooting and servicing HVAC systems, water heaters, pool motors, basic electrical and more.

I’m not an electrician, just a hobbyist, but I’m happy to share what I’ve learned along the way to save you some time and maybe point you in the right direction if you’re just getting started!

I’ll cover what I’ve learned about 12-volt batteries, building your own battery bank for backup power, generators, power inverters and more!

Thanks for visiting!
