We need a UPS

2020-08-21 18:35:07.776514+02 by Dan Lyke 1 comments

We need a UPS. I have an old APC that needs new batteries. I think I can get gel cells from Electronics+ down in San Rafael, but I'm also wondering if there's an inverter/charger+flooded batteries I can get more locally solution that'd have a longer time between replacements.

Ummm... I strongly recommend replacing the entire UPS unless it's a high-grade model; I've had issues with the electronics going bad after several years of operation. It's really annoying when the thing fails on you.

Don't know if you're a Costco member, they have some fairly hefty consumer models for $100.
