I done a very similar thing, i bought a cheap UPS $100, and just wired a N200 (200 AH) battery to it ...

Again, the point is that if you draw all 500W, it wont last longer than 20 seconds, irrespective of battery capacity. It will stop because of overheating, not empty battery. For longer use of power you can only go up to 10-20% of UPS capacity

@javaman28832 жыл бұрын
Very important to keep in mind the systems are designed and sized thinking of heat output too. When the system rated at 500 watts is putting out 400 watts, the original battery capacity only allows for it to run like 5 minutes (or less). A larger battery would have longer run time, but the unit may overheat and shutdown at 7 minutes. If you run at half rated current, so 250watts output from a 500watt unit, even with a huge battery you should NOT expect an hour of run time without additional cooling, such as a 12v fan pushing air through the UPS. If you are wanting hours of run time, stick to 10-25% of rated current. IE 500watt unit can supply 50 to 125watts for hours. Network equipment is a good use case.

All 4 my UPS devices each have 2 x 12v lead-acid batteries (in series). These are normal 7Ah batteries and it keeps the PC on for just long enough to save and shut down. On one of my UPS devices, I only run my Wifi and it runs for at least 3 hours, so that is ok with the low load. The problem with these small UPS's is that the batteries do not last very long. Usually, after a year I have to replace them. So I wonder if these do not get over-discharged. (I have about 16 old batteries that do not hold a charge). Will a bigger battery help? I got an intelligent charger and I charge every battery with it every 6 months and they seem to last longer now. The UPS devices seem to be OK and never give problems but I wonder if they manage the battery power properly.
@MarkoRadulovic2 жыл бұрын
It depends how often your UPSs are in actual use, that is, how often do you have power outages? If you do not have power outages - than batteries never get discharged and any battery problem exactly as you say would go down to poor charging management by the UPS. Increasing battery capacity would not help with battery longevity. Actually, one year is not such a bad usage period for a lead acid battery type. If you have 4 UPSs, for you it may be better to install a solar system type of supply, with or without solar panels. You need an inverter with about 2000w power and a 100Ah deep cycle battery and you can run your desktops faaaar longer. If you get an even bigger battery and say 3000W inverter you could also run lights and smaller appliances in the whole house, so much more useful than several UPSs

The charging circuit in these consumer UPS units..suck. They are fine for maintaining a full charge, usually 13.2volts. They do not have the output to charge the battery back up properly after an outage. It might be able to trickle charge up to 80% eventually. But there is no bulk charge cycle, or saturation charge (13.6v) cycles. A good 3 stage charger would greatly help the lifetime and the capacity of external batteries. However, I'm not sure what problems would be cause by hooking up another charger when the UPS is trying to trickle charge.

AGM batteries are kind of best for the UPS, as like you mentioned, UPS requires deep cycle Lead-acid batteries. You could even run the whole UPS off of Optima Yellow Top AGM if you truly wanted to, with the bonus of longer battery runtime with up to 50 - 100 Amps hour capacity. Or if you're an electronics whiz with the experience of safely handling the Lithium-ion cells, I'd go down this route personally, it's a lot more efficient than Lead-acid batteries - you need to modify the UPS' battery charger somewhat to fit Lithium-ion battery pack in.

@@MarkoRadulovic I don't have exact information since chargers in the UPSes varies widely - if the battery charger is of switchmode power supply flavor, check the datasheet on the power supply chopper transistor driver and then identify the exact potentiometer until you can change to the onboard BMS' charging voltage so the battery can then accept the charge. I strongly recommend to have BMS (battery management system) for obvious safety reasons, and so it guarantees that the batteries are balanced so they last much longer. The chargers are normally set to 13 to 14 Volts DC for Lead-acid batteries - I'd go with 12 Volts DC Lithium Iron Phosphate battery pack as it's fairly close to the car alternator voltage, about 14.6 Volts DC so we're not pushing the charger too hard.

ee brt imam problem sa trimerom kada hocu da nabijem gas na strunu kad kosim kaze wooowuuu i nabije gas sta je to da li treba smesa da se nasteluje za to sto radi to wooo i kad kosim nabijem gas i kad krene da kosi kaze wooo i kosi malim obrtajima trimer je 2ks kako to da nastelujem karburator molim za odg u savet posto sam tek poceo da radim sa trimerima

What temperature will be called overheat for ups transformer
@MarkoRadulovic4 жыл бұрын
That is an excellent question, well the baseline transformer temperature is about what was measured here around 50C. Overheating is considered when the transformer reaches 65C. This gives me the idea to further this study by testing higher loads on this UPS to see at which % load it actually reaches 65C.
@MarkoRadulovic4 жыл бұрын
I expect that UPS will overheat at a much lower point than its declared load of 380W because the backup time is greatly extended here with a bigger battery. So the rule is: BIGGER BATTERY - LOWER LOAD

I use only 100 watt load on 12 ah battery but while charging transformer heats so much that i can't rest my finger on it

@@prakharsrivastava8052 Well if you cant rest your finger, it must be close to 65C. That is strange as charging should not be a big effort for the transformer, especially the 12Ah battery. Could it be that battery is old or faulty, these batteries should be changed about once a year. If it is not a battery, it would be good to call the manufacturer and see what they think, my opinion is that it would be good to replace that UPS as it may become get worse and you then have a fire hazard. these things are quite cheap up to 1000W power

What about you crack out a multimeter and measure the current going into the battery during charge? I'm guessing less than 1 amp. So basically your battery is toast after doing this because the UPS will simply never be able to get that big of a battery back up to 100% charge. Something critically important for a lead acid battery. This is all just silly, the money saved just makes no-sense if you can buy an off the shelf inverter charger for very little extra money. This is your classic hilly billy hick hack that seems great but if you actually understand the drawbacks, you realize its a bit like pissing in the wind really.
@MarkoRadulovic7 ай бұрын
Please, you seem a bit overly critical. Firstly, the battery is charged up to 100% without any problem. The problem with battery charging was not ever mentioned in the video. But, I agree that there are always better and more expensive solutions. This works perfectly fine for anyone who needs a very small amount of power to back up several surveillance cameras for up to 8 hours, why not. It has worked fine for years, despite your theoretical scepticism. This is great for the specific purpose that is precisely defined in a video and in the description. If instead of 50W I needed 1kW, yes, then a sinusoid inverter with large 200+Ah batteries would be the only solution

Well, with 200W load it heats and automatically stops within seconds. This is still under its declared power of 360W. So, overheating is definitely an issue
@MarkoRadulovic2 жыл бұрын
The whole point here is that it WILL NOT overheat ONLY IF load is a very small fraction of the declared power
