A few dollars in parts.. for worry free reefkeeping   
 
I also use a smaller Eliminator Power Box, and a 300w Inverter that I used with my Deep Cell boat battery. I am pretty well prepared. So long as someone is home to connect stuff.
  
Chin, I will run a test and see how long it lasts. I meant to do that test a while ago but forgotten about it.
  
FYI, its not worth hooking up a heater, they will drain the battery quickly. The hot bags of water was perfect. Of course, I had a gas heater so.
