Kobo Libra 2 or Amazon Kindle Paperwhite 5 Signature Edition E-Readers
A power outage that takes internet connectivity with is is a great chance to get caught up on reading. But while books don’t rely on electricity, they don’t work in the dark either, which is when you’re most likely to pick one up. An e-reader is a better alternative. Their electronic paper displays use a minimal amount of power and can run for days without a charge, and most models available today, including the $190 Amazon Kindle Paperwhite 5 Signature Edition and the $220 Kobo Libra 2, feature soft back or front lighting so you can keep on reading even when the lights are out. Just make sure to pre-load a few titles before you lose power.
