I live in an area prone to power issues during storms, that may be
extended...as well as the stray idiot with car and pole.  I've already had to
run for about 10 hours due to idiot verus pole.... amazingly some how the fiber
was not cut for the ISP's and their power supplies for the line gear were far
away enough to keep power... No they both suck in that they drudge out the
idiots with generators on trucks if it goes too long... but till then you are
SOL.

Contiuning my life outside of those situations is critical. I am to the point I
am looking to have a VSAT for hot standby on internet.

Since the ding dongs here can't get the concept to bury stuff, and the paths
for the various power, and two ISP's all runs the same poles.

Then there is the stray power glitches which the Pi's just don't like...

 bp> Martin's answer seems to be as close to "no building" as is practical.

Afraid, I just don't have the time to spare for that... other projects in the
work, I need to be able to order a battery, plug in charger/power, plug in Pi,
move on in life.
