Good thing with that is your inverter charger acts as your 'default gateway' then all people on the output end never experience a black out, and to increase back up duration all you need to do is add more cells to the battery banks.

Here is the more expensive option for a fully working office. 10 x 200ah 12v deep cycle batteries at 24k each. 1 x 3kva outback inverter charger for about 200k. With this, energy savers, non crt monitors you can power a 20pc office continously even on a 2 day blackout. Plus the beauty is when you choose to get a generator, just plug it in .

Inverters are the best option. You can get Xantrex inverters (a bit pricey), along with some batteries, and you will have an almost uninterrupted power supply.
Thanks

A lot of people are installing inverters - that charge batteries, and provide output for a few lights etc. Should work for laptop. 4-6 hours. Check with Kenital, Chloride etc

With the current power rationing, what power options are there for someone working from home ( to power a laptop). apart from a generator ? For instance is there a DC to AC convertor that can be linked to a car battery ?
Speaking of which I do suspect that as of today someone somewhere has a container full of generators docking at the Mombasa Port.
