Battery Backup Systems, Battery Failover Systems & How They Work

Interested in designing a battery backup system but not sure how it all ties together?
Want to upgrade the battery backup system in your office or records room?
Want to put a battery backup system on a few circuits in your home or office rather than deal with a load of little UPS systems? We would agree that a systemic approach to battery backup is the right way to go. With this in mind, let's explore how battery backup systems work.

I haven't the time, just let me buy a battery backup kit


These 101 pages offer a little insite that will help you learn how battery backup systems work and what you will need to make a system work for you.

A backup battery system, or UPS consists of only 4 things:

  1. A Power Source (usually the grid or a generator)
  2. A DC Battery Charger (fill the batteries as fast or faster than they unload)
  3. A Deep Cycle Battery (acts as a capacitor for the DC side too)
  4. A CLEAN SINE WAVE INVERTER!

To add solar to your home, simply add solar panels to the above kit.
To add wind generation to your home, simply add wind mills.

A vehicle used today inevitably has too many accessories:

GPS systems, radios, winches, etc. all add loads to your vehicle the manufacturer never intended. This inevitably leads to shorter battery life, and some costs. When you replace the battery that didn't last next time, do it right. Batteries sized properly for your vehicle last longer, you can plan on replacing your battery less often, saving you money.

How and why your battery dies.
How to upgrade the battery capacity, choosing sizes, etc.
To add wind, solar, generators etc, you should consider charge controllers and dumploads.
