Thanks for the warning

You gotta love the utility companies for being so nice and giving helpful warnings. Today I awoke to a flyer on my door from APS (the electric company here) with a notice that they’re upgrading some equipment and the we can expect to have a quick power outage of about 5 minutes. They advise that we should have computers and other equipment turned off for when it happens. Very nice of them and it’s good advice.

Only one huge problem. It’s scheduled to happen on either Tuesday or Wednesday any where between 8 am and 5 pm. Great. Thanks for narrowing the window down to only 18 hours. It makes it really easy to have everything off for the 5 minute outage. I’d be really pissed if I didn’t have all of my equipment on larger size UPS units. Might be time to get a the house on a back-up generator.
