Power Failure

[jaylach]

While it isn't going to power a house you could get a UPS (uninterrupted power supply) to keep a tank going. These are normally seen as a battery backup cor a computer but I see no reason why could not power a tank. Electrical stuff for a tank tends to be on the low side as to wattage. Never worked it out but I would imagine that a mid-size UPS would power most tanks for at least a day. The one I have on my main computer will handle the computer, cable modem, router and 55 inch HDTV for 25-30 minutes and that is a LOT higher draw than would be experienced with a tank.
