It's not really a problem for me I live within a block of a large Hospital so I'm on a high priority grid and have never lost power for more than a couple hours but I have wondered if anyone has tried useing a UPS (uninterruptible power supply) their made for computers and intened to run them from a few min. to a few hours depending on the model of UPS but pc's and monitors pull a lot of amp's a few min. for them may be hours for a CPAP anyway just a thought
