It Only Takes One Blackout to Lose Everything in Your Fridge
Mark came home and flipped the light switch. Nothing.
He opened the fridge — warm air. That sick feeling in your gut when you know something's wrong.
Milk, spoiled. Meat, turning gray. The insulin his wife depends on — ruined.
$400 worth of groceries. Gone. Trashed in a single afternoon while he was at work.
The worst part? He never had a chance. No warning. No alert. The power just… went out.
Just Look at What Happened During Winter Storm Fern in 2026
230 million Americans were under winter storm warnings and advisories. Families from New Mexico to New York lost power for days, not hours. And when the grid went down, life unraveled fast.
Here's what people were posting online in real time — scared, desperate, and hoping someone would answer:
"Just threw out $300 worth of groceries. The fridge has been warm for 3 days. It hurts to toss it…"
"My freezer thawed and leaked meat juice all over the floor. Cleaning that up in the dark by flashlight was the low point of my year."
"My CPAP battery died last night. I stayed awake terrified I would stop breathing… silence is terrifying."
What a Blackout Actually Costs You
One bad outage destroys more than the Blackout Buddy costs. $199 down protects $830+ in food for 11+ years. That’s not a purchase — it’s the cheapest insurance in your kitchen.
Introducing the NEW Blackout Buddy
The 24/7 Silent Guard for Your Fridge & Critical Appliances
Imagine this instead:
It's 2:37 AM. A transformer blows three blocks away. Your house goes dark.
You don't hear a thing. You don't feel a thing. You sleep right through it.
But behind your fridge — before the compressor even had a chance to stop — your Blackout Buddy was already awake.
In 20 milliseconds — faster than a blink — it switched your fridge to backup power. No alarm. No scramble. No spoiled food.
When you wake up in the morning, you don't even know it happened.
That's the Blackout Buddy difference.
- Instant & Automatic — Responds to a power failure in 20 milliseconds. No buttons. No scramble.
- 1,030Wh of Industrial-Grade Power — Cycles your fridge for up to 34 hours on a single charge
- Slim & Discreet — Only 2.5" thin (thinner than a Bible). Sleek brushed-metal design.
- 100% Safe Indoors — Zero fumes, zero noise.
- Stackable Up to 4 Units — Quadruple your runtime or protect multiple rooms throughout your home
- Solar Recharging Compatible — Charge it even when the grid is down for days (panels sold separately)
- Built to Last 11+ Years — 4,000+ charge cycles with LiFePO4 battery technology
Slides right on top of your fridge. No electrician. No installation crew. Just plug it in.
I Rely on the Blackout Buddy
★★★★★
“These freezers hold thousands of dollars worth of meat. We pour our blood, sweat, tears, and love into caring for the animals on our farm. If the power goes out and we aren’t prepared, we can lose all of that hard work and money within hours. And that’s why we get real serious about our power backup. This is super easy to use to keep your fridge and freezer running when you need it the most.”

Five Star Product
★★★★★
“After experiencing how the Blackout Buddy performed in this last winter storm power outage, I would highly recommend it to every household in America! It provided automatic backup power when the lights went out. Kept my appliances running! I really love how small it is and that I’m able to put it right in the cabinet in my kitchen. It runs silent and safe with no need to worry about gas for a noisy generator OR extension cords. In fact, I’m going to get 3 more!”

Plug It In Once. Never Think About It Again.
The Blackout Buddy uses advanced Pass-Through Technology to stand guard between your wall outlet and your fridge — staying fully charged while silently monitoring the grid 24/7.
The moment the grid fails — whether it's 2 AM or 2 PM, whether you're home or 100 miles away — the Blackout Buddy activates instantly.
In 20 milliseconds — faster than a blink — it switches your fridge to backup power. No alarm. No scramble. No spoiled food.
No noise. No fumes. No danger running it indoors. Just quiet, automatic protection — day or night.
“Why Not Just Get a Gas Generator?”
That’s what most people ask. Here’s why 351,749+ families chose a different path:
“My buddy had a gas generator. Spent 4 hours in line for fuel. I sat on my porch drinking coffee.”
Covert & Easy to Install — No Skills Required
You can use your Blackout Buddy straight out of the box. It's only 2.5 inches thick — thinner than a Bible — and finished in sleek brushed metal. Hide it behind a fridge or under furniture. Or blend into your home without turning it into a "prepper bunker." You protect your family — quietly and discreetly. It can:
We include a FREE kickstand so you can stand it upright right out of the box. If you want to mount it on the wall, we include a FREE mounting plate and instructions. It's easy and takes about 30 minutes. Just plug it in, connect your device, mount the display if you want — and your home is blackout-ready before dinner.
Slim design fits anywhere — on top of, behind, or beside your fridge. Thinner than a Bible.
Here's a video to show you how quick and easy it is. Here's Seth to walk you through step by step:

Powers CPAP, Oxygen & Medical Devices Too!
For the millions of Americans who depend on powered medical equipment, the Blackout Buddy isn't just convenient — it's critical. When the grid fails, your CPAP keeps running. Your oxygen concentrator stays on. Your refrigerated medications stay cold. Stack a second unit in the bedroom for 80+ hours of CPAP runtime — over 3 full nights of uninterrupted sleep. This isn't about convenience. It's about safety.
Impressive Peak Power
The Blackout Buddy delivers 1,200 watts of peak power — that's the burst of energy needed when your fridge compressor kicks on. Most backup batteries can't handle that startup surge. The Blackout Buddy does it effortlessly.
600 Watts of Continuous Power
Once your appliances are running, the Blackout Buddy delivers a steady 600 watts of continuous power — more than enough for:
✅ Full-size refrigerator
✅ Chest freezer
✅ CPAP machine
✅ Oxygen concentrator
✅ LED lights
✅ Phone & tablet chargers
✅ Wi-Fi router
✅ Small fans
What Can It Run? (And For How Long)
Your fridge cycles on and off — you don't need continuous power to keep food safe. 4X Expandable! Stack up to 4 units to quadruple your runtime.
1,030 Wh 4 Units
4,120 Wh
* Run times are approximate; results vary based on usage conditions. For a fridge/freezer, start with a cold appliance and cycle power to maintain temperature. 4-unit times assume stacked configuration powering a single appliance.
#1 Myth About Powering a Fridge in a Blackout
Most people think you need to run your fridge continuously to keep food safe in a power outage. That's not true.
Your fridge is designed to cycle on and off. The compressor runs for a few minutes, then rests. During a blackout, the Blackout Buddy powers those cycles automatically — stretching your runtime far beyond what you'd expect.
Here are 4 tips to maximize your runtime:
- Your fridge cycles on and off. Listen for the compressor — it runs for a few minutes, then shuts off. The Blackout Buddy only draws power during those active cycles.
- Conserve power. A full fridge stays cold longer. Keep the door closed as much as possible. Every time you open it, cold air escapes.
- Location matters. If you can, move perishables from a warm garage fridge to an air-conditioned kitchen fridge. A cooler environment means less cycling.
- Recharge during downtime. When the fridge isn't cycling, the Blackout Buddy is recharging from any connected solar panels — extending your protection even further.
Set up your Blackout Buddy in minutes — so easy!
By following these tips, you can use the Blackout Buddy to run your fridge longer during power outages.
Stack Up to 4 Units to Quadruple Your Runtime — Or Protect Every Room
The Blackout Buddy is designed to work alone or together. You have two powerful options:
Most families want more than one — stack them for maximum power or spread throughout your home. Add more units at checkout or anytime later. They're designed to work together seamlessly.

It Probably Saved My Husband's Life
★★★★★
“The ice storms in February left us without any type of electricity for a solid week. If it wasn’t for the solar generator, my husband wouldn’t have been able to sleep with his CPAP and we would have been in the dark for a week. It’s well worth the money. Get off the fence and order this for the safety and security of your family!”

I Sleep Better Knowing My Family is Safe
★★★★★
“I’ve been in the military for over 15 years now. When I have to be away from my family, I get a little uneasy since we live pretty close to the coast and have to deal with hurricanes. I sleep a lot better — as does my wife — knowing we have the incredibly easy-to-use solar-powered backup power. All she has to do is plug in whatever it is that she needs to use. Just like that we have peace of mind while I’m away for the military.”

Flawless When It Mattered the Most
★★★★★
“We recently dealt with Hurricane Idalia. Thanks to 4Patriots and their selection of backup power supplies, my wife and I were able to have enough power to run two refrigerators and two freezers, as well as various other electrical items. They performed flawlessly for the 12 hours we were without power, but I’m confident they would have worked much longer if necessary.”

4Patriots Products Are Famous for Selling Out
When we launched the Patriot Power Generator 2500X, it sold out in just 14 days.
The Blackout Buddy is our first production run. We only have 2,200 units in this initial batch. Once they're gone, the next production run won't ship for 8–12 weeks — and pricing is not guaranteed.
The good news is, if you're reading this page right now, that means we have at least 1 Blackout Buddy in stock. But we can't guarantee how long that will last.

You’re Standing at a Crossroads Right Now.
It’s 1:27 AM. A transformer blows. Your house goes dark. The hum of your fridge — that quiet sound you never notice — goes silent.
What happens next depends on what you do right now.
Path A: You Leave This Page.
By morning, the milk is warm. The meat is turning gray. You open the freezer and the smell hits you — $400 in steaks, thawed and leaking onto the shelf below.
Your wife’s insulin? Room temperature. Ruined. You’re Googling “how long does insulin last unrefrigerated” at 7 AM while your neighbor’s lights are on across the street.
You start doing the math. $1,400 in groceries. A pharmacy run for medications you can’t replace on a Saturday. The CPAP that went silent at 4 AM while you lay awake, listening to your own breathing, afraid to fall asleep.
And that sick feeling in your gut that says: “I knew it would happen. I almost did something about it. And I didn’t.”
Path B: You Claim Your Blackout Buddy Right Now.
Same storm. Same 1:27 AM. Same transformer.
But you sleep right through it. Your Blackout Buddy kicked on in 20 milliseconds — before the compressor even had a chance to stop.
When you wake up, the fridge is humming. The freezer is cold. The insulin is fine. Your CPAP ran all night.
You pour your coffee. You check your phone. You find out the power went out at 1:27 AM. You didn’t even know.
Your neighbor texts: “Did you lose power? We lost everything in the fridge.”
You text back: “We’re good.”
$199 down is the difference between these two mornings.
You’re the person your family relies on in a crisis. You’re the one they expect to be ready. Don’t make them wish you’d acted today.
