The lights went out this evening in Eureka around 1035 for a minute or so and I got a live test of my newly completed power distribution system in my ham shack: It worked great! 
I was listening on the HF bands when everything went dark. I have a big 50A Astron PSU and a 90 Ah Interstate battery here, but the two weren’t interconnected 
My new system has them both feeding an 8 outlet RigRunner with a hefty A/B changeover switch ahead of it. Threw the switch to B and I was back on, work lights included. 
Another power outage a couple of weeks ago caught me flat-footed just as the State ACS Net was starting. 
The famous “Tound Tuit” finally arrived. 😎👍
