Looking for recommendations in case of a power outage. I have two full standard power strips running the system if that helps to know.
 
Most of the hardware details are in my signature. 5 power heads, 110 classic Octopus skimmer, two 15w gen4 Radions, return pump, two heaters, small pump for ATO.

Central Ohio.

Thanks for any info. I just noticed a previous sticky post on the subject so I will hop on that as well.
 
I have a generator that hooks to the house when needed. It is not one that is always on standby and will come on automatically, but it'll do. I am in the process of saving/building my system now, and I will probably get powerheads with battery backup. They will at least buy me time to get the generator going when I come home from work and the power is out.
