Re: Easy solution said by extreme50:Nothing a few bucks wont fix... (photo of nice honda equipment removed) Good point. Since we're all talking about why they remove the copper / don't use it, let's focus on fixing the problem at hand.
First, you can bet that Verizon (god love them) won't fix this unless they absolutely have to, by law.
And if the Government gets involved, you can bet it will be a long time before it's addressed unless they can prove that Verizon is guilty of gross negligence by the BBU provided and its alleged battery life.
So, let's decide how to fix this ourselves. It's my understanding that we can attach a larger BBU from Belkin or whoever you like up to the Verizon BBU. Now, can we agree that an extended power outage can be considered, say, 7 days? Even if the power outage of 2003 I was without power for less than 48 hours, and I thought that was pretty bad. Sure, some people in Florida and the Gulf lost power for weeks, but hurricanes are extreme circumstances and one really can't plan too well for those. You can however, plan for the 1-7 day outages, should they occur.
So, my question is this. To those that have Fios, what size/model BBU would I need to buy to hookup to my Verizon-provided BBU to power the phone for a week, of which I could get say 24 hours of talk time out of those 168 total hours? (24hrs * 7 days = 168 hours).
