Ouch..

It's funny (well .. funny/interesting not funny/ha-ha) how that always seems to go. The few times I had phantom trips where I did end up losing livestock where always the times that due to one thing or another, they ended up being longer because I didn't think to check for running status when coming home and having to step out again or I had to work late because some project manager was having a dicky fit about something or another or etc. etc. etc. My current setup is now load split amongst 4 circuits so if any one of them goes, there is still most of the others still running. Even still that's no magic bullet. A controller with battery backup is probably the safest option, even still I'm sure it's not 100% but the best we can do is hedge our bets I guess.

Read through the whole thread only to end off with terrible news. I guess the only consolation here is that you were already moving ahead on this epic Man Cave. Keep it moving, this setup is very unique and I cant wait to see it come together.
