We were similar. We lived on a farm in a big old farmhouse and had an Aga. It was quite an adventure having to use candles as an eight year old in the winter of discontent.
There is a huge UPS at my work. Think it will power a whole office for 10 hours or so. There is a reason that it is needed. It's not something you could take to a gig though.

Good idea though. My wife's younger sister got married a couple of weeks ago, and the limiter cut in at what I would consider quite low volumes.
The DJ was a bit thick. There was an indicator on the limiter that showed the level, and when it was stuck in the red he didn't think to turn it down slightly - at least not until it had cut out a few times.

Yeah that's the reason we still have one UPS, even if the desk isn't affected by the on \ off cutout the current settings are lost and it reverts back to the last saved state ... which is a problem unless the guy running the desk constantly stores the scene every couple of minutes
Garden solar lights are useful in powercuts, feeble as they look they will help with a tiny amount of light that's enough to stop you walking into walls etc
