This may be a horrible idea but…
I got a #GoalZero Yeti 300X for Christmas. It is intended as a battery backup for the house, but I thought it might work well as a replacement for my failing #UPS for my #Homeassistant server, #RaspberryPi NAS, and internet. I have the Yeti set to battery saver. The equipment pulls an average of 40 watts. Every 1.5 hours the yeti gets down to 80% and the spends 15 minutes to charge back to 85%.
I’m worried that I’m shortening the lifespan but it works well.
Power's been out since 1:30 a.m. all over #Seattle. Lots of people in the same boat per the outage map.
Because we lose power 4-5 times each year due to high winds and whatnot, a few months ago we invested in a #GoalZero power bank which can power lots of stuff (including both our CPAPs) for 2-3 days if needed. Not shilling for them, just glad we have it!
