Nanopore data clarification regarding merging of samples
It is entirely unclear which type of analysis you aim to do. You probably should be more specific when asking questions.
That said, given that the run was going perfectly fine until a power issue stopped it, all data produced should be fine and you can indeed combine those runs.
You probably shouldn't bother with poretools. If you are using fastq files to start your analysis you can just cat the basecalled files together. Also after alignment, you can merge the bam files. If your analysis requires the fast5 files then you can probably just put these in the same folder, but you should tell us which analysis you are doing.
