A good reason for gt systems with battery backup to have service  
contracts associated with their sale. A pro showing up once or twice  
a year to test and exercise the batteries is the best was to ensure  
that there will be reserve power when a real outage occurs.

Good point Ezra.  Answering Joels question , I don't know of any customers 
who routinely load test the backup system. Sort of like a dead start battery on 
backup generators, You don't think of it until you need it. However humans are 
theoretically educatable and the only way to comfirm backup readyness is to 
test the system.
