Inverter saved the day

The weakest link is the pump failing. But it would be an "act of God" - just like an earthquake happening here. Didn't worry too much about the inverter though. Hmmm. As for the battery discharging, not really because it is a "deep cycle" and testing the charge every other month or so makes sure its fully charged.
If the whole thing failed there would be some spillage (an annoyance, pain in the a..,etc.) but not the complete tank. As it stands now I'm headache free. Its the water movement that concerned me the most.

What's your back up contingency plan?
