Have you ever had your power go out for an extended period ? We did a couple years ago for the first time in 17 years. It was out overnight and I had to run the gas fireplace. Because of that, I have a BU battery for my Vortechs that can run both at 50% for up to 36 hours. If you're interested I'll send you the link for that little build.
And, sorry, I don't mean to be critical ...
Is there much heat thrown by those ballasts ? I was wondering how it may affect your powerbars
Ive been using that ups for a couple years and Ive had the power go out a couple times for an hour or so. I had to adjust what I had powered off of it but I would get almost an. I hour running 2t5s, a 200w heater and an mp10. (The first power outage using it I had everything on it lol lasted 5 min rofl) I was thinking of getting the vortech one but I like picking what runs.

From what I've seen from these ballasts they don't really produce any heat at all barely warm.

Today I was looking at micro pc setups and might throw one in there to remotely log in and program everything (profilux & radions). Then put a lcd moitor in there just to.look cool lol. Maybe even some web cams later.
