Just the updates slight drop from Friday, but better than what the weekend had. Last week they did have planned maintenance at 15%.

Mine went out on Saturday at 6pm, came back at 4am. Ever since they moved two suburbs on to our sub while they "fix" the overhead lines, the trips have been insane :-(

Mine went out just before I went to sleep. Ran aircon on inverter until it woke me up at midnight with battery low so I switched back and power was back. Looks like about 2 hours judging by the street WhatsApp group.
