Elik Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 My CyberPower UPS (uninterruptible power supply) is now two years old, and backup has gone from 20 mins to 2 seconds. When looking for a new one I came across this product https://voltronicpower.com/en-US/Product/Detail/Solar-Online-UPS-1KVA-3KVA a UPS with solar panels, that prioritizes solar, battery, grid. Can anyone recommend a small one? (500 W for 10 mins to save my work and power down) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossy Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Your existing UPS probably just needs batteries, usually readily available sealed lead-acid. The Voltronic unit is effectively a hybrid solar inverter with batteries in a UPS shaped box. Nice simple solution in one box. Nothing really comparable available locally, you'd be looking at a small hybrid inverter, battery pack and solar panel(s). 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elik Posted April 30, 2023 Author Share Posted April 30, 2023 An alternative could be Flashfish A601 portable power station, it has pass through and UPS function, but its expensive at 430 USD, and Lazada does not have that version. I can only guess at what the import duty would be. Also, they charge 170 usd for a 100 W solar panel, and i need 3-4 of them, seems a lot. In all the payback time becomes too long. Ecoflow also does UPS, but more expensive Bluetti may be able, if you manage it right Jackery cant Anker maybe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
