"Oh but we never get power cuts here!"
Yeah. Try living in a part of the world where 140mph winds for four weeks just just Normal January Weather.
"But if I got power cuts for more than a few hours I'd complain to the provider!"
Yeah. That sure is going to help rebuild 30 miles of blown-over 275kV power line that runs through some of the most inaccessible country even if it's not storm-force winds that prevent access by boat and fallen trees that prevent access by land. Complain all you like, but doing beats talking.
It's expensive these days but it's something I do across a few hundred sites about once or twice a year.
