Default Narrow miss this morning (power outage related)

So the power went out this morning. My wife likes to keep the house at a balmy 50-55 degrees in the area that the tank is in. So my night time temp gets to about 75-76, which is fine. BUT, the power went out and it started to drop like a rock. 2 degrees in about an hour. I was JUST about to start boiling water and putting it in a container and drop them into the tank when the power came back on. Thank god!!! Didn't want to lose my fish!

That being said, what do you all use for power outage setups? I'm thinking I can get a 5-6hr back up which could just run a power head and a heater, or do you think I should just run the heater and forget the rest?

Any advice would be appreciated.
