My light-sleeper wife awakened me up st 4:15, even as I was having a miserable night in my CPAP mask anyway, to report a PM from our Enphase solar service company advising us that an automobile accident out on the main ingress-blvd. a block over, had caused a utility power failure; and we are now operating on our standby Chinese-made battery which is down to 56%...I can operate devices; but need to conserve the battery...how like a U-boat! Example: I'm posting this on my battery-charged Verizon tablet rather than my mancave's computer. Power from worthless, criminally negligent PG&E is expected to be restored by 06:45...(the Krupp coffee-maker uses a lotta energy) and I can resume selling them excess solar-produced Kws (reducing my electric bill to approx. $30 a month ) and recharging the battery!
