Can you detail how you have that setup because that sounds very
interesting but I am curious of how it is all hooked up, etc.

 

Thanks,

David

I have one, has 2 12 volt deep cycle batteries in parallel purchased for
cheap from the great Satan, Wal-Mart.  Use a small 15 buck maintain
charger for each.

 

Tip....  They have a 18 month no pro-rate warranty.  Close to 18 months
you could "accidentally" drop it a few times to knock the cells around
then you get the bonus......  New battery.  Not that I would condone
such a thing.

 

But I would.  And possibly have.

With nearly all of our equipment being 24V DC, is anyone running their
sites off of batteries connected to an AC battery charger?  I'm
envisioning something like a solar setup, but instead of using solar
panels to charge the batteries, you use an AC-powered battery charger.
This would eliminate the AC to DC to AC to DC conversion that a typical
UPS setup would introduce, making the efficiency far better and the
run-times far longer.  I'm thinking I would like to do this (I need to
revamp our UPSes everywhere anyway) but am not sure of what pieces and
parts I need or if this is a terrible idea that I should run away from.

I second this. We had been using Belkin consumer UPS' because of their
physical dimensions, but we've been changing them out for APC 750 and
1500s
with SNMP where ever we reasonably can. Get ours new through Ingram
Micro.
