Can a smart trainer, say Kickr Core, still provide resistance if mains power is not available?

I'd expect fluid and magnetic resistance units to stay at the same resistance setting when you disconnect power, so you ought to be able to continue using them as a dumb trainer.

I doubt manufacturers encourage using them like this though.

Yeah but "magnetic" resistance isn't "electro-magnetic". Most smart trainers except the Neo require external power to generate the magnetic load.
