Kimberley notes on ups & portable power
Government offices, schools and clinics in Galeshewe and the CBD use UPS units for computers, network switches and medicine fridges. Home offices in Royldene use router UPS units for fibre. Travellers on the N12 towards Barkly West and Ritchie carry power inverters and power stations. Security companies back up alarm panels, cameras and electric fence energisers across Beaconsfield and Belgravia.
Power in Kimberley
Kimberley is a long way from the next big city, and that distance changes how backup power works here. Sol Plaatje Municipality supplies the city and buys bulk from Eskom, and in parts of the older municipal network faults, ageing equipment and cable theft cause outages that can take time to fix. Summers are very hot and dry, with sudden thunderstorms and lightning, and winters bring cold nights. Homes in Hadison Park and Royldene back up lights, wifi, fans and the gate. Government offices, clinics and shops want UPS and inverters for computers, fridges and card machines. Keep batteries in a cool, shaded room, and keep spares in mind, since stock may come from further afield.
