I never have a k3 failure due to power outages. All of my 12/13.8v equipment is
on a 100 amp power supply that trickle charges three Large industrial computer
backup batteries that are hooked to a solid state switch that transfers the
power connections from the PS to the batteries any time the power hiccups here.
That includes all those pesky wall wart cables that I cut loose from the warts.
