Internet Access When the Lights Go Off


It's kind of romantic when the power cuts brought on by "load-shedding" plunges you into that warm glow of candlelight. Or not. While Vincent van Gogh has his starry, starry night while you miss that Zoom meeting. Or you can get a UPS!


I'm happy to report my UPS setup keeps the lights on and the WIFI going. My setup is as follows:

1 x Inverter, 1200VA/2400VA

2 x batteries, 12v 100AH Deep Cycle

This is housed in a casing on wheels. The changeover is instant so that you don't even lose a second's worth of power interruption. It plugs into a wall outlet to recharge. Still love the song though. The graphic I created of the starry night was an attempt at learning Adobe illustrator.
