Preppers and prepping high tech low tech

Reading blogs, watching shows, and researching I have found most preppers are missing a couple very important fact.  After any huge event and all the fighting and mayhem is over what are the first steps to rebuild?  Most people have big plans to rely on solar power, battery flash lights and other electronics that will be a important luxury as long as they last.  What happens when your solar panel breaks?  There will not be repair men, repair parts, or possibly transportation to get them to you.  I am suggesting to have a major portion of your back up plan be rustic and not require any high tech gadgets.  How about gardening, construction, and repair? Do you have enough hand power tools to accomplish your needs?  With out power you will not be able to charge cordless tools or run electric saws.  It is only a matter of time your generator will brake beyond repair or your supply of gas will run out.  By incorporating some low tech devices into your home it may help you in many situations.
