Most of my outages are mere glitches; just enough to make me have to reset all the electronic, battery-less clocks.

The range, the microwave, the water softener, wife’s clock radio...

Also the timer for driveway lights shifts by the amount of time the power’s off, so it can accumulate quite an error also.

Oh yeah, the really old, second oven in the basement with a ac powered clock. We never use the time except Christmas and Thanksgiving, when BOTH ovens are at full usage for the big family gatherings. (It’s a LOT cheaper to keep the old oven when it’s appliance replacement time, than to buy one of those DOUBLE ovens the women seem to “need” nowadays!)
