So, just getting ready to head out and the power goes out. Run to the stove. I start to see some smoke coming out from the top of the pellet bin and from the lid to the bin. Opened the windows. Glad I was home, but now I am worried about leaving it on again. If I add a UPS about how long will the stove run? I do have an OAK.....

Depends on the UPS's battery. Also might want to add a relay so the stove will go to low fire. Mkaes it last longer. There is a thread on it. DBcooper had a neat post on the relay.
 
I dont know about my skills in adding a relay.. ;-)
