Re: long power cut = phone cut
If the mains fails at night while you are sleeping then you will be unable to use the conventional phone to call for help.
It uses 4 AA batteries which are customer replaceable. Not ideal, or what you would want in an emergency but the workaround is easy enough. People relying on mobile phones and forgetting to charge them (or their power bank) are a bigger issue.
