       @ai6yr A lot of people tend to forget that infrastructure requires power too.  You hay have 100Kwh of battery storage, but the cable distribution node down the street has a cold deep cycle battery that only lasts 45minutes.As a TIL:Some of these equipment boxes have some form of generator inlet.  This won't always work, since they depend on the repeater upstream to have power as well, but if you are close to the head-end, chances are you might be able to hack some power and get internet back.... at the cost of a generator.
