Congrats! You are at 3k! 🎉

[@nics-systems-electric]

Thanks I just noticed that

[@maxstechlab]

Very nice good idea as well

[@ciscodesignercciesameer4564]

Really incredibly helpful! looking forward to more cool video like this

[@VOLTRONDEFENDER4440]

I recomend electriction gloves that insulate electricity if your unable to turn off power to a circuit even I don’t have those it will help you be insulated from electricity

[@nics-systems-electric]

True

[@christiancoover1515]

keep up the good work I like it

[@lightsandlights9898]

that will definitely help within a power outage you will still be able to open the door with your key fob. cool video

[@VOLTRONDEFENDER4440]

Nice that way if the fire alarm panel goes of for no reason(which is unlikely)on power outage the strike plate would be unlocked

[@nics-systems-electric]

Yes

[@uniteddrones7626]

I’m not sure if you ever caught or maybe you did at the end of the video, that motherboard and bare bonding wire are very close looks like a future short coming along one day, I’d move or wrap it if you can.

[@GaryBeltz]

Does that 12V UPS have an alarm doesn't seem like the blue lights can be seen through the door.

[@nics-systems-electric]

Nope you would not be able to see it through the door

[@VOLTRONDEFENDER4440]

Those ups battery’s do need to be replaced if it stops holding charge as it’s probable too old when that happens

[@nics-systems-electric]

Yes

[@Anthonyngoploti]

do you have a link to buy the device?

[@ryanpek]

Got a parts list? Do they make a board that does 24 VAC output instead of DC?

[@nics-systems-electric]

This was a pretty cheap Chinese power supply they didn’t give me any parts list but I don’t think it would be hard to find a 24 V version or a different brand that makes one

[@VOLTRONDEFENDER4440]

How do you even know if it’s on battery mode?

[@nics-systems-electric]

You don’t know

[@VOLTRONDEFENDER4440]

@@nics-systems-electric huh so the only way you know the power is off is the fire alarm panel and the ups battery for the garage door opener and camera beeps

[@nics-systems-electric]

@@VOLTRONDEFENDER4440 Well it’s on the same circuit as the 120 V UPS and some other things so that would be a pretty clear indication that it has no power

[@AlexandruDragoescu]

CC negative and AC "earth" are different thing.... and you want to combine them :)))

[@aydenesteves-kingsley3472]

what is that for

[@nics-systems-electric]

If the power goes out so it will still work and I can still open the door

[@firealarm300andmore4]

Cool

[@aydenesteves-kingsley3472]

the panel has batteries all redy

[@nics-systems-electric]

No there are no batteries in the access control panel

[@aydenesteves-kingsley3472]

10/10

[@LuisRodriguez-wo6nl]

Well sorry but this is a good vid all I all but it has very little practical use in the real world!! If it's not Altronix made then I won't even touch it !! That looks a mom and pop UPS for like grocery or small type business... Anyway go and do some Altronix vids instead!!

[@nics-systems-electric]

It works and gets the job done so it’s fine with me for the amount it gets used if there is ever a problem with it I will upgrade it to something better but for now it’s fine
