I'm not getting any of this. Why build one when you can get a used UPS for next to nothing? The big expense in the UPS is the battery pack. Fact is, the hospital I contract with rotates these things out the back door every year or two. There's nothing wrong with them other than tired batteries. The hospital decided long ago that the replacement cost of the batteries were so expensive that it made more sense to just buy new units. I'm a pack rat, so I was bringing these things home with me for years. My wife read me the riot act and they went out to the curb three months ago.... All 24 of them!I want to use sine wave inverter in UPS so that I can run my computer in case of power failure.
