I have a Panasonic multiple handset system. If the power goes off, any handset in the main base will power the whole system for a while (cordless works in power outage). But I also keep a corded around.
The wireless home phone devices from Verizon and Straight talk have batteries in them, they work a few hours if the power goes off.
