We put bigger battery banks out on our remote sites, and I'm more inclined to save the batteries on the very infrequent times we have a multi-day power outage. We also don't get snow, so this is a very rare occurrence. bp <part-15@SkylineBroadbandService> On 11/20/2014 12:57 PM, Josh Luthman via Af wrote: I agree. Even if it's a bigger set of $500 batteries, it's worth a) not going to the tower unplanned and b) not having customer problems.
