No idea what MICC may be for you.              If you refer to "Mineral Insulated Copper Cable", no. The mains may       still be out.              The main reason to have the detectors run from battery is precisely to       avoid failures due to failed mains.                     --       Cheers, Carlos.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
