Vortech Battey backup

[thysrof]

Had my first power outage yesterday for about 6 hours. The battery backup for the MP 40's really works well.

When did they finally get there and what was the problem?

You guys are up too early

The Vortech is top of the line so I wouldn't expect anything less.

They got here at 8pm and a branch had fallen on one of the lines. My Power.Cable,and Phone come from across the creek to 4th st. Lots of trees to cause problems

Glad the vortechs kept flowing. Did your livestock survive ok?

For those curious...
I'm planning to build one of these for the used Vortech MP40WES I just bought.
Once you go Vortech, you never go back (assuming you can afford it). I traded my Koralia Magnum 8's in.

Owe yah everything is fine. The power was only out for about 5 hours. I have a generator if the power stays off too long,althought if it's less than 24 hours I would assume the vortechs on battery backup would be good enough.
