Two hours after lighting my 24-year old Harman Invincible last night the power went out. I had gone out to visit my parents and wasn't able to get back home until almost an hour later. In my 5 years with this stove this had never happened, and I was worried about smoke filling the house or even burn-back through the auger tube. But thankfully there were no problems at all - no smell of smoke and just a faint glow of coals in the burn pot. When the power came back 30 minutes after returning home the stove kicked back on and within seconds it was burning normally like nothing had happened. Not sure if things would have been any different had I not been burning on the lowest possible setting. Anyway I just thought some of you might be interested in a real life power failure experience.
