You have the batteries and you want to acquire the rest of what makes a battery backup a battery backup.

It's called an "inverter charger"

Hello all,

I have an issue and I thought, hey, I'm a member now, I'll go to the brain trust that is BVARC.

I want a UPS for my home office.  I don't want to pay for a APC UPS.  I have a couple of gently used RV batteries that I've keeping on a NOCO Genius battery charger in maint mode.

is there a gadget I can buy, that will allow me to plug it into house power for power outage detection purposes, but let me use my own batteries for backup when the power goes out.

I'm sure MFJ has something like this, but I was thinking something of higher quality.

I am still working and do not have the soldering skills to make my own, so I would like to purchase something turnkey that is less than comparatively sized APC system.

Any suggestions?

73, Rob, KC5RET
