I think we're spoiled with how responsible ComEd generally is. I can only imagine what it's like in some of these really remote areas. Weeks to a restore?

I have some sites with 2 of those in series. And some with 8 x 100 Ah. I have a fair number of NEMA boxes with strings of 26 or 33 Ah batteries in the bottom, one 48 VDC site has four 33 Ah in series for about 1600 watt hours. That can be over a day of runtime depending on what you’re powering.
