Power redudancy #50

We get a fair number of few-second power outages, particularly in the summer when demand is high because of cooling. I have a few UPSes in the house now for the network gear, and my desk, but losing power means all the hue lights default to turning back on. That is particularly annoying in the middle of the night 😅

I always figured a Tesla Powerwall would be ideal for this to have 0-downtime of power. It is a bit pricey though. Hence sci-fi future 😅
