Hi Folks,

Has anyone installed power backup solution that is based on an Inverter system with a battery bank. Am looking for a SOHO solution and costs. Additional information such as the load capacity, space requirements, battery types/sizez (maintenance or maintenance free), inverter features, etc would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Mich.

I would highly recommend either speaking to "Chloride Exide"

or Davis and Shirtliff

http://www.dayliff.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=263&Item...

as they have highly specialized power backup system solutions (warranty+support included). There are a lot of other vendors that offer the same,but it all comes down to cost. I am sure they will point you in the right direction of what you need.

thanks

Vince
