Sandy, DC Inverters, and Load?

[supplyguy]

Tree down in the back yard - no big deal. Another tree down in Allentown, on my son's car. He was not in it. One flapping piece of siding secured with a quick trip to the porch roof in the night. No loss of power and the sump pump did its job, albeit every 30 seconds all night long (when things calm down - time for a new pump with a battery backup!).

Hope our NJFiats brethren up north are okay. Looks much worse in New York and New Jersey on the news.
