 KL> is a  total power cut?
 KM> Some stores/catalogs sell battery powered air pumps.  Or if you have a
 KM> UPS for your computer, maybe you could plug a air pump into it? :)
   DONT!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Do not use a computer UPS to run anything but computer
    equiptment, unless the UPS is of such that it says
    it can be used so.
    You may overload/burn out a computer UPS,
    there are UPS made to work with lights, and other stuff, but
    a Computer UPS is usually made to work with computers,
    I recall some UPS I had over years warned vs using
    with equiptment other then computers, something to do with
    way otheer electrical equiptment draws current.
