The grid both is and isn’t unreliable. I’ve not had many random outages, but I have had 2 x day long outages on hot Friday’s when they were replacing power poles, which the generator of course kept me through. Working from home, and being in the Texas heat, that would be bad. And I like many people now have really bad power outage PTSD after the 2021 Texas Freeze where we all lost power. I’ll never let that happen again! And turning everything off is such a hassle, I want it to to all stay on no matter what. Since I work from home, that adds another layer too. Plus, I just like cool things
Sweet setup, what’s the reason for the extreme attention to backup power? is the grid really that unreliable where you are?
I’ve had one unplanned power outage in the last 10 years so it seems like a crazy amount of backup to me.
