That leads to a question I have about power outages

We visited in July and as many others have said --fell in love with TV hope to be bask in February and will most likely buy since I will be retiring in August.

Does TV experience many outages during the year ? What is the usual duration of the outage if any

Do people buy back up generators ?

I work for the Utility here in NY and Outages are not that common unless there is a extended heat wave or violent winds that cause overhead wire damage. Outages are fairly short in duration so Back up generation is mostly limited to what we call "sensetive customers" Hospitals, nursing homes,etc

Thanks and Hope to join you folks soon
