OK, version 2... and hopefully the last version.


Sorry, but would it be worth mentioning that many gas hobs will not operate
without mains power, the gas is cut off as a safety measure if the igniter
circuit is unpowered?


Could expand into consideration of appliances which will run
without electricity, if you are in an area particularly prone
to power cuts.

I have a Main gas multipoint water heater which still gives me
infinite hot water when the power's off, and I did have gas
wall heaters, some of which work with no electricity.
