Like the title implies, I’m trying to figure out where to pickup cheap used or new battery backups (ups) in Canada.
I have a couple of small servers I run, so around 1000+ watts should be good.
If I have to replace the battery inside, that’s not a problem, there is a battery place inside my city that offered cheap replacements for around $30.
Any suggestions help!
I would start by getting a Kill-A-Watt (or generic) so you can measure power draw (under artificial load). The price between a 600W UPS and a 1000W UPS can be dramatic. When I hear “small server” I think of an R210ii / similar platform that uses less wattage than a old fashioned light bulb.
