Yeah, ain't that a bitch... non-toxic long-life chemicals that you could have in your home or appartment. I saw some BS article that some here posted a few days ago saying that distributed power was more vulnerable to cycber attack. I was busy or I would have shouted "bullsh!t!". Of course it isn't - if you individually (or as a small collective) can pull away from the grid because you have a non-toxic flow cell powering your subdivision, the power system becomes, in essence, immune from the grid disruptions. At nodes - the smart reconnect would allow a toe-in-the-water design that allows individuals to assess their cost-benefit ratio of grid (re)connection.
