Driller Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 What do you guys think of this http://www.apc.com/resource/include/techsp...;total_watts=25 as a UPS for a 6 camera system with DVR? The DVR draws 65watts and the power supply is a Dantech 4 Amp 8 out unit. On the site it says the UPS is good for 1H30m at 100watts.

I have the 8x 0.5A one (DA397 I think). Yeah I noticed that there was a place in the box for a battery, I could stick a Yuasa in there couldn't I?

Right then, battery it is on the Dantech for the cameras and I'll use the APC exclusively for the DVR. That should give me even more runtime.

SUBS Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 is your DVR a 12V unit with an in line PSU ? If so you could do similar with a PSU and a decent size battery, worked for me twice now. much cheaper, and smaller than a 240V UPS.

Bugger I hope not, I've just forked uot for the UPS! The DVR is a Samsung Techwin SVR960. Any idea Alpat Systems? I'll have a look at the spec when I get home from work.
