Only get a chance to sit down and game once everyone has settled down or gone to bed, which is generally right about now. But no, Eskom would have it otherwise and stop me being able to relax and game and instead have me oversleep.

So, this is how my loadshedding went… stage 4 14:00 to 16:30 but then stage 6 kicked in and we got 16:00 to 20:30 but wait there is more! We now went back to stage 4, meaning we are now down from 22:00 until 00:30. That means if my math is right, we have been/will be down for about 8 hours and 30 minutes [many angry and controversial words that will get me banned and thrown in jail]

Morning all.
More load shedding for us in a few minutes. It’s really been messing with my productivity and focus. If there has to be load shedding I wish they’d just pick a number and stick with that for however long it takes. The constant changes do my head in. @TechThief’s experience is the perfect example of the frustration this kak has been causing.
Oh hell, look at me wanting to normalise Stage 2 load shedding. What have you done to me Eskom?!

We’re in a similar boat to @Ani. We rarely get load shedding as such - I think because I live close to a mine, hospital, water plant, and the police station.
Before you guys all queue up to move in though, we do get regular random power outages. I’m busy with the fourth one for June - been going on since 8 last night. I’ve been running the gennie most of the evening last night to have coffee and a little bit of heat in the house, didn’t sleep well since I didn’t have electricity for my CPAP machine, and got up early to turn the gennie on again to get the appliances doing their applying. I’m working from home this week, so burning some more fuel while waiting for the municipality to handle their shit.
Already planning on spending my 13th check due next month on some inverters and batteries to get my solar ball rolling.
Summary: Cranky Avatar this morning.
Edit: Power came back around 09:00. 4% less cranky now.
