With this heat wave starting I want to add a battery back up to my system just incase we have some blackouts. So I have a couple questions;
1) What steps are people taking to protect their systems during this time?
2) If using a battery back up, which one are you using? and how do you like it?
3) What batter back up would you recommend?

My system is a 90 gallon, mag 5 return, 2x hydor koralia 4s, 1x hydor koralia 2, 2x 150watt DE halides, 4x 96watt VHOs, Euroreef RS-100, also have a aqua lifter running my CPR overflow.

The only things I would like the battery to run are the mag 5 and the aqualifter, maybe the skimmer. What are everybody's thoughts?
