Ärende: Downtime

Hello Robert.

 RC> Hello Jeff.

 RC>>> I have to apologize for the downtime this past week.

    For shame.... Shouldn't you have been toast long... long... ago?

     I remember hearing the CRACK and seeing the flash. The lights dimmed
but stayed on. Moments later I noticed a flicker underneath the bedroom
door. When I opened the door to investigate I seen my bed, my stereo, and
several things on the floor on fire. The window had been blown in and the
metal storm window frame was burnt. The strange thing to me was that each
of the items burning were burning seperate from each other in differant
parts of the room.

     Have you ever seen lightning hit those power line transformers? Now
there is a fireworks display.

     Now that I think back about it. I recall being on a 2-3 story ladder
working on some siding. When lightning hit a nearby tree. I don't think I
touched one single rung on the METAL ladder on the way down. I could
seriously feel the charge in the air. Split that tree right down the center.

 RC> Sounds like something I need :)

       I just need to get my but in gear and slowly start buying batteries.
The UPS actually uses 2 sets of 4 series connected batteries in parallel
operating on about 48 volts DC. So, I am thinking that it would function
with a minimum of four batteries but with less capacity.

 RC> Lol!!
