What would you do with 50 UPSs?
« on: January 16, 2006, 10:47:17 PM »
[I find these "hypothetical" items both trollish and  non topical as well as attention seeking]


Say hypothetically that you were able to obtain about 50 uninterruptable power supplies with batteries that may or may not be dead:  What would you do with them?  Units are APC 280 and output is 180 watts max.


What would one of these sell for without the battery?


...oh, no reason, just curious... hmmm?

Well I'd try to get them cheep and find the ones that work but have bad batteries, replace the batteries, and them sell them at the local flea markets and Hamfests. However with units that small you need to get them REALLLLL cheep, like $3-$5 each.

a battery will run about $10-$14

The APC ES350 (200 watts) is going for $40.00

It's a crap shoot, good luck
