Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I will have a power load of 35W 24/7 for years. I'm using the unloaded power consumption as a proxy to measure the UPS consumption/efficiency. In my case a total power consumption (UPS + 35W load) of 40W will be acceptable, 55W won't.
The UPS has to cycle the battery for its health. This takes power. The 20W will be the recharge.
There is nothing you can do about that. If you DIY your own, without putting battery healthcare. It will fail when you actually need it. And sometimes catastrophically.
I understand. There are Anker power banks for laptops with 65w. They should be more efficient but I don't have data about the long term use. I guess the battery will last less than the UPS batteries.
Those will not be UPSs they will be power banks. Most Powerbanks are lithium. Lithium requires careful monitoring if it is constantly float charged. And they fail catastrophically when over charged.
