Please do you charge with the UPS or a seperate battery charger? And how long does it take to charge the battery to full capacity?
I really need to set one up asap....I will also appreciate if you could post a clearer picture showing details of the connection. Thanks so much


I charge the battery with generator...I will show you how I charged em tomorrow...I'm not sure how the battery is charged to full capacity but we just left it to charge like that as long as the gen is put on... but as for the setup just follow what the OP said and you'd be fine...

thanks alot...I was able to generate power supply and boom...now people ask me to setup for them... I feel you've been able to empower me in my own lil way and God bless you fam...

here's my setup...it worked we charged two laptops, eight phones, , powered two printers and stuff

Acknowledged your call today, sorry was driving when you called and was on my way back to Phc from Uyo, reason for the delay in response.


Yes have seen your setup even though the pic is not so clear.
Let me take a pic from my ups here to show you how to silence the beeping sound on the UPS


From the Pic
Fill the small tip with a material or a masking tape to reduce the beeping sound of the USP

heyyyyyyyyyyyy...I used my generator to charge it...just like how you start your generator using key...as the generator works it charges the battery simultaneously

Thanks.
What I really want to know is if you charge through the UPS with the generator. Cos I'm sure it's not possible to charge directly connecting the battery to 240V produced by the generator.

well hey that's true...the generator doesn't really charge it... it's a very slow charge with the generator... hopefully the OP would shed more light on that

Will need you to guide me.

HARD ANALYSIS:
Divide your SALARY by 30 days and see what you get (i.e. the number of days in a month and see the funny thing about your salary plan).
For example,
(1) An average level-12 worker in the state government civil service earns NGN 60,000.
**** And this translates to NGN 60,000÷30= NGN 2,000 every day. This is LESS THAN the amount made daily by an AVERAGE HAWKER in the city.
(2) A freshly EMPLOYED GRADUATE BANKER in most NIGERIAN BANKS earns an average of NGN120,000 monthly.
***So everyday, you get NGN120,000÷30= NGN4,000 as the daily value for your work-life. By implication, this is LESS THAN the amount earned DAILY by an AVERAGE DRIVER in d city and in some villages.....
(3) If you are a FRESH GRADUATE EMPLOYEE in some oil companies, you earn an average of NGN300,000 monthly. So in a day your WORK-VALUE is NGN300,000 ÷ 30= NGN10,000
**** This is LESS THAN the daily amount earned by an IRRIGATION FARMER supplying vegetables to Lagos MARKETS, a TIPPER CAR DRIVER supplying sand for three BLOCK INDUSTRIES and CONSTRUCTION SITES just 3 times a day and DRIVERS of DANGOTE TRUCKS who have bought off the trucks at scrap value and are using them to convey products between villages and the cities for just five business owners.
--------->>>HOPE BY NOW, IT IS SINKING IN, RIGHT?
And when there is an ISSUE in the FAMILY that requires FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, the DRIVERS, HAWKERS and the rest are looking up to you with a WHITE COLLAR JOB.
(4) If you are an NYSC MEMBER, you DON'T need to be told that:
*****NGN19,800÷30 = NGN 660 is your worth on a daily basis.
I hope you know that PURE WATER SELLERS who own a shop, a pepper soup joint and a small TOYOTA COROLLA car to distribute pure water to five restaurants earn MORE THAN you & WHEEL-BARROW PUSHERS working on contract for three warehouses probably make MORE MONEY than you EACH DAY
............
Wake up and be more productive. We should be more proactive, create room for more income and strive to diversify our streams of income.
The earlier you wake up and smell the coffee, the better for you......
Someone right now will say this analysis is too ideal to be true but take your time and do it, you will grasp the crux!!!
STOP waiting for the Government to feed you, feed yourself and help the Government feed others. That is where we are in this age.... Pls forward and inspire someone.
DO have an Entrepreneurial mind ahead!!!

CharlesPhc:
Things you would need:
1. An old but working UPS (650VA or 1200VA) - Free from any computer shop or technician
2. A Deep Cycle Battery from 38AH (Keke Nape Battery N9,000) to 100AH (Truck Battery N20k)
3. A battery Charger N6,000
4. System Fan for cooling of Unit N200

Total N15,200 or N26,200


That is all you need...!!!


Please between a regular car battery and deep cycle inverter battery which is better?

can the set up accommodate a 150AH deep cycle battery using 650VA UPS?

Also can the system be used simultaneously while charging it ?
