I actually built my own 2 kWh battery setup after finding available commercial UPS overpriced.
It took some work and cost me about 2000 euro, but now I run everything (including networking, servers and monitor) directly on a battery feed DC net in my house.
It's pretty cool too have all IT equipment unaffected by a power outage.
I was hoping for more info in the article, so thanks!
That ship is much larger than I expected for "just" laying cables. But then again, I have no idea how they do it...
I picked this game up for vacation a couple weeks ago, after having it on my wishlist forever.
I don't like bosses in games, and I'd say I still don't. But this game has been great, the hype is certainly justified. And the bosses are annoying but hard and fun. The world building is fantastic, exploitation is fun and accessible. The kind of game that's easy the learn and hard to master, and just keeps on giving.
I stumbled upon that area by accident. :)
I've been following the graphs here, and it's sure seems to be declining. But I don't know how accurate it is.
It’s very homemade, but I believe it’s built like a DC net for a boat. It’s a bluetooth connected lithium battery, boat cabling and fuse boxes and Victron charger and voltage transformers.
I built it with “subnets” for different voltages. The battery is 24 V which feeds servers and a 34” monitor, then a transformer to 12 V for network gear, and several 5 V (USB) for a rack of raspberry pis. The is also a small 230 V transformer, for some gear that have built in PSU.
The largest server is fitted with a custom DC PSU I found on e-bay, others are normal external PSU where I cut the cables.
