You can also keep a horse and buggy ready if your car fails. Kerosene lamps if the power goes out. A box of ice etc.
The advantage of quality new tech is its more reliable. For a small power outfit meant to be portable, redundancy is probably not essential.

Lithium batteries deliver the same usable power at 1/4 the weight. Far more suitable for storage/back up as well.
