[WISPA] Weekend Politics that Make Sense

2011-09-17 Thread Cliff Leboeuf
Should members of Congress cut their salaries or raise the age at which they 
can draw a congressional pension when many Americans are making personal 
sacrifices during the country's prolonged economic crisis?

A congressman makes $174,000 a year. However, that may not be enough for one 
freshman who said he's finding it hard to get by on his salary.

Call/email your representative and make it know that this idea is worthy of 
passing.

Re: [WISPA] [WUG] UPS With SNMP Support

APC 9616/7/9 management cards and SU1500, 2200 most definitely do.

What kind of wattage/runtime are you looking for?

Re: [WISPA] UPS With SNMP Support

2011-09-17 Thread Scott Piehn
I know this is going to be different from most people, but we use Tripplite. 
The dual conversion models (I think the clean power helps with lockups). 
The run time sucks on the base unit, but I found the connector they use for 
add on battery packs.  The 1000va unit is a 24 volt based system, and it 
doesn't appear to damage deep cycle batteries, so just hook us as many pairs 
as you need.  Plastic boxes with #6 jumper cables works very well for 4 
batteries mounted upright, or the same box can hold 6 batteries laying on 
the ground.  Then we add a packetflux to monitor battery voltage and AC 
voltage via some left over transformer.  Use a chart on your monitoring 
software to give you percentage of battery and alerting on the AC side.

We do not do a LVD.  2 deep cycles gives us 24 hours at most sites, so we 
just send someone out after 20 hours if the power is going to be out longer.

Was looking at this model:

Offers SNMP and email alerts.  Noticed the connector on the back.
Wander if we can build our own external packs as well?  Does this look
like the same connector as your units?  What did you use for
batteries?  I am guessing 72 volt?

Re: [WISPA] UPS With SNMP Support

2011-09-17 Thread Leroy Koglin
We have been using the Tripplite 1500XL model for about 6-8 months now and
have been happy with them. UPS reports the battery voltage is 54v. The
double conversion does draw more power during normal operation but also
allows it to continue to power loads even when AC input power is as low as
about 60v AC or so without actually switching to battery draw. Only issue
has been portable generator power they do not like. Our old APC models we
could change the sensitivity to make them work. I have not found an option
in the tripplite's.
