Lets see when I bought a 2.4k inverter and four batteries I was told it was enough, When I bought a 3k planta I was told I did not need it. When I started installing extra battery racks for more batteries I was told I was nuts.
Before I got my extra batteries installed I had a black out long enough two days in a row to drain my bank completely.
I can say in the sates when we had a black out they did last for days but you could always cite a reason. Storm damage. Major malfunction or something. Also when there is a rise in births nine months after a stateside black out you have to ask how rare are they.
We do not even acknowledge individual black outs here. We talk about how many we have in a week and how many times they were long enough to require the planta.
We over come and adapt but each dollar spent on batteries, Fuel and so forth is one less dollar that gets spent on the local economy helping it rise. Yes this is paradise and yes I am glad to be here. With my back ground I can live with out power but why should I when I pay the power company for it.
When the average city dweller in America can count on their fingers the number of black outs in a decade, then there is no comparison.
