For power outs at home, I use oil lamps. They aren't expensive and give off more light than a candle. I usually keep 2 gallons of lamp oil and extra wicks on hand, more if I think I might need it. As far as candles go, I just get a variety of sizes. I haven't found tealights that last that long so my first choice is oil lamps.
