Three questions:
1) Does this device have the capability of recharging the battery
when the main power comes back?
2) Also, do you have pictures, drawings, and performance
specifications that I'd be able to look at?
3) If you're selling these devices, what is your price and delivery
time, and in what quantity are they available?
Please advise,
Andy
