I live in a racially mixed suburban neighborhood on Long Island NY. I am well prepped with food, water and defense. However no generator. I'm skeptical about getting a whole house gas powered one ($$$) or smaller gas or diesel to power fridge and freezer only because the noise would make us a target. Any ideas?

300-400 watts to run a refrigerator but when the compressor kicks on, that surge can be 800 - 1000 watts.
Instead of a generator or solar panel, you could look into a AC invertor for your car or truck. Just run the refrigerator in cycles just to keep the food from spoiling.
