soundguymike Posted March 27, 2009 Posted March 27, 2009 The term "addiction" is used in many contexts to describe an obsession, compulsion, or excessive physical dependence or psychological dependence ... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Addiction :D In other words I approve of your resilience. Quote
still learning Posted March 27, 2009 Posted March 27, 2009 What does it get power from.. gasoline? How many hours will your pc and/or lights run off of it when its fully charged? Quote
FireTime Posted March 27, 2009 Author Posted March 27, 2009 It's an automotive jump box. Normally used to jump start a car with the need for jumper cables and another car. (also works to start your car when it's balls cold outside) What I do is it it ever gets lo on juse (I have never gotten ther) I just hook it up the the car battery and have it draw power from the car, instead of giving the car power. ALSO I paid the extra dollar and got the one with the build in DC/AC converter. All that runs is the DSL modem and the wireless router. My laptop/psp/web tablet all have batteries so they don't need to be plugged in. Also if there batteries get low I can charge them with this. Also @soundguymike, I'm not addicted to the internet, I went without it once for a while, or an hour, or was it a minute?.. Quote
Razor512 Posted March 27, 2009 Posted March 27, 2009 you may still have to charge it when the power comes back on anyway how much uptime do you get from that UPS? Quote
