Might have to take some travel time soon and currently my only PC is a desktop.

Haven't been in the laptop market for a decade. Whats good these days?

What do you want to do on it? Gaming? Dev work? Just browsing the web / YouTube to kill time?

Especially if it's just a backup device for when you're on the go / when the power goes out, you can save a lot here by not buying one that does more than you need. In the extreme case of only using it for basic online activity, it's even worth considering a tablet. (Not just for the lower cost, but tablets tend to have better battery life too.)

Browsing the web and fairly light gaming.

I've been using a 15" Razer Blade and I absolutely love using it, but that might be overkill for your use case anyways.

Brand is really a matter of preference (just avoid any no-namers) but I'd suggest get an 11th or 12th gen i5, or 4th gen or higher Ryzen 5, with 16GB RAM. You don't need discrete graphics. Ryzen will be slightly better for gaming, especially if it's 6th gen.
