Blackout across Spain: batteries will stop working in a few hours

The cause of the blackout affecting all of Spain and other European countries, including Portugal, France, and Italy, is still unknown. Despite the confusion caused by this catastrophe, some people still have access to the internet.

Despite the absolute chaos caused by the power grid outage, which is leaving people without power or internet connection, there are still users who aren't experiencing any issues with their network or Wi-Fi.

This is because your connection is powered by batteries or generators, but these have a certain lifespan, so it's very likely that they will run out of power and stop working in the next few hours.

If the infrastructure connection is not restored in the next few hours, even though the systems are still functioning right now, the batteries will run down and stop working.

In a building, the lifespan of batteries or generators during a power outage can vary significantly depending on several factors, such as the type and capacity of the batteries or the number of connected devices.

Experts advise unplugging, turning off, and disconnecting all non-critical appliances at this time, as this will help existing generators and batteries last longer, as it is still unknown how long this blackout will last.
