I don't like to think of it as dead, I like to think of it as the robot in Lost in Space when Dr. Smith pulls his power pack out.... but seriously, the guy who did my installation (http://www.brawer.com) in my Steinberger did a great job where he installed an additional battery so now I use 2 nine volts and if the Sustainiac dies I still have main power. Of course when that dies it's over.
