💥 IMPACT: Why People Over 50 Need an Alternative Power Source
If you’re over 50, your power needs aren’t just about convenience—they’re about survival. Nearly 1 in 5 adults over age 50 rely on electricity to power medical devices like CPAP machines, oxygen concentrators, or refrigerated medications. When the power goes out, their health is at risk.
Power outages in the Southeast are rising. 70% of outages last longer than 2 hours, and most households aren’t prepared. In South Carolina, only 10% of homes have any form of backup power. That leaves millions vulnerable.
🔎 DISCOVERY: The Cost of Doing Nothing
Think about the cost of a single blackout:
- $300–$600 in spoiled food
- $150/night hotel stays
- Missed work and medical appointments
- Loss of critical medical device function
Multiply that by just two outages a year and it becomes clear: being unprepared is expensive—financially and physically.
🧭 STRATEGY: Start Simple, Build Smart
You don’t need a full solar farm or a $20K standby system to begin. You need the right plan:
- Portable generator for emergency power
- Manual transfer switch to run essential loads
- Battery backup for sensitive equipment like CPAPs
These tools give you control and confidence—without breaking the bank.
