#batterypower — Public Fediverse posts

Oops. I forgot to set the battery pack for weekend running. Now it gets to recharge.

It finally hit 3 cycles, after 23 days and change. Used as I am, this pack should be good for 7500-15000 cycles. It takes more than a week for a cycle at this pace. Ergo, this pack (not taking into account utility company power failures, leading to longer times running off of batteries), should last somewhere between 150 and 300 years, assuming the batteries don't need hip replacements by then.

I ordered this with the 314Ah cells:

And I ordered this inverter for it:

Should any of the more expert folks here think that's a mismatch, or know of a better inverter, let me know so I can cancel this inverter and get a correct one.

Out of Curiosity I looked up the max reported power draw of an Xbox Series X console.

I need enough Battery power to power an AC unit while still having light and maybe music, movies, or a game.

The Xbox has a Max Reported Power Draw of about 211 Watts.

I think I will be using a minimum of 4 24v 100ah batteries, which when configured in a way to maintain 24v ends up being a total of 9600WH.

If the only thing working is the Xbox at the Max reported draw, it could last on this battery setup for 457 hours and 15 minutes not taking into account the DC to AC loss and powering the inverter.

That's a lot of time.
