		<description><![CDATA[Risking my life to save $5000 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EiVq_eHqK3U

After the leak in Linus&#039; home rack watercooling setup, most of the hardware fortunately survived, except for the ~$5000 UPS battery backup unit that powers most of his hardware! Fortunately, we found a shipping damaged unit on ebay that can be frankensteined together to hopefully have one functioning UPS. Do not try this at home.

the sheer amount of disclaimers around the first 2 minutes tells me this video is going to be a good one. 

16:46 The face of a guy who saved thousands of dollars while making his company tens of thousands. Way to go Linus!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What’s the Difference Between Monolithic and Modular UPS Systems?
June 23, 2022
The differences and benefits are compared between traditional monolithic UPS systems versus more newly designed modular UPS systems.
https://www.electronicdesign.com/power-management/article/21245068/solaredge-technologies-whats-the-difference-between-monolithic-and-modular-ups-systems?utm_source=EG+ED+Analog+%26+Power+Source&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=CPS220620079&amp;o_eid=7211D2691390C9R&amp;rdx.ident%5Bpull%5D=omeda%7C7211D2691390C9R&amp;oly_enc_id=7211D2691390C9R

What you’ll learn:

    Why UPS systems are needed.
    Differences between monolithic and modular UPS systems in relation to cost, simplicity, and reliability.
    Key benefits and downsides of each system design.

 

Increasing demand for reliable power, coupled with the growing use of essential electrical equipment and digitization, is driving up adoption of uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems. While data centers, hospitals, and manufacturers were among the first to adopt the technology, demand for UPS systems is expanding to other users such as research facilities, schools, or anywhere with critical power applications. Considering the high stakes associated with energy failure, what are the most important factors to consider when choosing such a system?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is a short teardown of the smallest UPS I have yet found thrown out. The Belkin Regulator PRO Silver UPS 650VA (model F6C650-SER-SB) uses the battery type CSB HC1221W which has been discontinued. It features: UPS / surge protector, 4 power outlets, Fax / modem protection, 650VA output power capacity and has 25 minutes back-up time. Its weight: 953grams, Colour:  Black Silver and Size: 225mm x 180mm x 60mm.

		<description><![CDATA[TC Projects: Lead-Acid Battery Backup
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1q4dUt1yK0g

You can support this channel on Patreon!  Link below   
Sometimes life throws curveballs. But rather than just get hit in the face, why not do something about them? This video is a mishmash of a project, some insight on Lead-Acid Battery technology, inverters, and applications. A bit different you might say from TC’s normal stuff, but what’s life without a little variety?

*There are definitely different ways to charge lead-acid batteries, with different strategies optimized for different results. However, for general 12V applications, a large battery and a slow-ish charger for a car battery will be an A-OK combo.

As far as batteries and inverters, go with whatever you like. But definitely don’t use a car battery. At a minimum, look for a marine deep cycle, and if you can get your hands on a pair of golf cart batteries or a 12v true deep cycle from brands like Trojan, do that.
For inverters, I would recommend a pure sine inverter for most applications, but unless you plan on running some heavy stuff from a large battery bank, what’s shown in the video is way way way way way overkill.]]></description>
