Re: Fios takes out the power backup selling point said by burgerwars:said by fifty nine:said by tmh :
The backup battery dies after 8 hours. Then your SOL. If you have a generator or battery/inverter or UPS you can extend that. As being one who lived through the Northridge Earthquake, I had no power for a week and felt lucky when my power was turned back on. My POTS line (all that was available at that time) never missed a beat. FiOS, or even multiple battery back-ups, can't beat that. I had power and phone back up in 24 hours. Sounds like you were living in wrong place at wrong time. -- i am not a lawyer but I do play one on the internet |
