Since I had an injury about 15 years ago with the saw turned off I
e-mailed
SawStop and adked that that question.
It still continuues to work with no power. IMHO, a simple capicator
could
store enough energy to power the device.

What exactly do you want it to do for you? If the saw blade is already
not
moving, how can it help you?


The blade may still be moving with the power off. Keep your eye on the
blade next time you hit the switch. From what I've read, lots of people get
injured by saw blades running unpowered.
