As much as it sucks to be reliant on inverters and batteries, they are pretty darn reliable, and not at all dependent on the local market for pricing of nifty antiques. Talk to the the person in the house who washes clothes before going the wringer-washer route. There's a reason those things aren't sold anymore. Efficient is good, but happy is better, no matter what the cost.

May you always have success in your quest to irritate those who you despise. -Ben Goode
If mom isn't happy, nobody is happy. My grandma had a Maytag gasser. My mom swore to never use a wringer machine again and gas was out, too.
Wringer washers are extremely labor intensive. One of the things that electricity excels at is running machines like a washing machine.
Be sure whoever actually does the laundry accepts this new method you are proposing. Divorce is expensive and nobody likes it.

"Education consists mainly of what we have unlearned."--Mark Twain[ Parent ]
For starters, the phrase "tit in a wringer" was a literal description of a common, horribly painful, and permanently mutilating mishap.[ Parent ]
