Two Power Outages in a Day Is Irritating

First of all, one power outage at home is irritating enough, especially when it happens at lunch time, and you can’t heat up any food and can only drink lukewarm tap water. Compounding that irritiation is HECO’s aggressive service restoration estimate of one hour. Yeah… that was more like two hours from 11:30 to 1:45.

Okay, fine whatever. Power comes back, lunch is eaten, and work is resumed… then the power goes out for a second time today. The HECO outage system says this.
