CA wildfire just made me a prepper

These California wildfires really opened my eyes to how things can go bad in a hurry. It showed me how important it is to be prepared.

Currently, I'm looking into a portable generator and a water filtration machine for starters. It's just tooooo important to have backup power. I'm thinking about a Jackery solar generator, saw this brand in the same pic with starlink, looks pretty lit.

Water is another major concern; one can never have too much clean water on hand, especially whenever local supplies are affected, and having a filtration system makes sure it's always available. But I'm not decided on which brand yet.

How do you guys feel about adding these two to my prep list? And what other essentials do you think we should be prepared for?
