Wowee, thats a lot of batteries!
Not when its compared to the server farms I used to manage and work in . . . One entire foot ball field is dedicated to just batteries which are the first line of defense while the six diesel generators spool up.Wowee, thats a lot of batteries!
At the end of the day the primary goal should not be lost on anyone which is to have Something in place. Don't let anyone ever push you toward a solution that doesn't make sense! If we were all made of money anything could be had and in place. So, don't let all of these bells & whistles I show here in the forums dissuade you from getting something in place. We are start from nothing and as time and finances allow we update and grow the systems.At my local Cyrus One they have just started swapping all the lead acid for LiFePO4. 80% space savings!
I really want some Enphase Encharge 10 batteries to go with my solar, but the output is so poor. $7K and they output 3.8kw... So I'd need at the very least 4, and that only covers half the output of my generator.
If its double conversion it will, you can tell when I switched to one. This chart is output voltage from the UPSDo your UPS units have built in ability to clean up dirty AC power?
I run a 1250 watt pure sine wave inverter with built in transfer switch and charger, tied to a couple 12v 105aH batteries. It has less than 20ms transfer time. My CPU is not affected when power goes out. I haven't done the math, but it should give me enough time to get home and fire up the small generator if power hasn't come back on by then. Will probably last for days if the sump pumps are not running too. Not sexy, but it works.
No power cleaning ability, but I have a whole house surge unit and small surge protectors at every outlet with electronics.
Not sure if the question is being posed to me vs others but this is what's in place as it pertains to Dirty Power. At a high level no one can change what comes into the home via the POCO so if your utility is known for shitty power - you have shitty power. If you're like me our utility provides clean and reliable power all of the time so there isn't a lot I have to worry about in generalities.Do your UPS units have built in ability to clean up dirty AC power?

I like APC myself. I have a 3000Va UPS and its programmable.I have a rack with no backup power supply...running a
1.HP i5 8500 Elitedesk sff for BI
2. a dlink router
3.a Cisco 3650 802.3at 24 port switch
4. and a Nightowl 16 ch DVR.....
thinking about buying this to keep the switch and the computer and the router up. Had a 17 minute power outage yesterday. and again 2 of the Dahua 180 Wide angle fisheye's went wonky.
