Default oil furnace running off inverter?

Sounds like the voice of experience. Where I am, power cuts are seldom
more than a couple hours. But four days has happened, and that in the
bitter cold winter.

That is a very good point.
To run mine, I invested in a couple of good deep-cycle batteries.

You then have to have a plan to maintain the batteries.
For me, it has been worth all the bother.
The batteries are now 5 yrs old and they have provided power
thru numerous outrages and run lights and fridge besides the
furnace as needed.
