Small UPS for my computer, LED big screen (low power draw), modem, WiFi router, and fan. Good for about 20 min., and protects those sensitive pieces of equipment (hard drives, mostly).
Replace the UPS battery every year, $14?
Get a bigger one, as needed.
Also, have essential stuff on the cloud or a backup somewhere (if you don't trust the cloud). Then just switch to laptop whenever you need. If power out is longer than 2 hours, head to a decent place with good WiFi and plugs in another part of town. Essentials possible.
