    Clearly they need to get rid of the remaining regulations so that the free market can solve this issue like it always does!

        I have a power bank and foldable solar panels. That provided enough power to keep my refrigerator running.

        I also have an EcoFlow Wave2 portable air conditioner that I was able to partially charge with solar. The AC function uses too much energy, but it can also operate as just a fan, in which mode the battery will last for days and days. Having the fan on me helped a lot.
