I have one of those bottled gas fires on wheels, complete with a near full gas bottle. That bought decades ago and not really used, just for emergencies.
I have a small single ring gas burner with disposable gas cans.
My caravan, in my drive, with 15kg of gas, gas oven hob, gas or electric heated, LED lit from it's 12v battery, so can cook, eat and it's fridge can run on gas, or mains.
Half a dozen 12v batteries all fully charged.
Gas oven, gas hob. If power fails, no CH, but we have gas fire, which doesn't need power to work.
If phones go out, I have VHF and HF radios all able to work on 12v. I normally use a set of wireless phones, which will not work in a power cut - however, I keep a cheap line powered phone in a drawer, in the kitchen, always plugged in to a socket at the back of the unit.
I would have liked a log burner, but I just cannot really justify one.
In 50 years, we have never been without gas - we have lost electric for the odd few hours though.
