nurktwin 2,143 Report post Posted September 27, 2012 Just lost power for about 5 seconds, but that was enough time to mess everything up. Had to reset all clocks in the house, reboot cable tv and reboot 3 puters. Not to mention it stopped my listening to the Bad English CD. And I also lost all the windows I had open including the one for tomorrows Classic Rock Video Of The Day. All is restored now, but it's a pain in the ass when that happens. I wonder if it had anything to do with sirens and about 5-6 fire trucks roaring by the house between 7 and 8am this morn. Power went out about 8:56am here.

Amber 70 Report post Posted September 27, 2012 At the hospital we used UPS which kept us from losing stuff when the power flickers (which happens a lot with summer thunderstorms). Sure would be nice to have one at home. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
