Thank you for the name of the product, that's the most important and quickest way to find it. I added this to my shopping cart, so I won't forget when I'm ready to purchase, this unit is available in the Philippines.
Thank you. This would have been helpful during Hurricane Beryl. I am buying one.
These CyberPower UPS work well. I took these steps years ago and then realized that Comcast doesn't work when the power in the neighborhood goes out. I have AT&T fiber now and the internet keeps on working. The UPS will last for about 3 hours. I also have a generator that will power my whole house for longer outages. I have UPS' on my modem, security cameras and Ring Door Bell. Also have emergency lights in the house.
Nice informative video thanks for sharing.
Than you for sharing.
I finally found the right UPS through your video!
There was a power outage in our town and no internet was possible with my UPS. They said it was down in the whole place.
And you also say we can connect anything you want to your UPS? Heater and freezer would be great!
Heater and freezer are too big
You need a much larger one to power those.

So was "you can connect everything" just a somewhat unfortunate choice of words?
Let's stay on topic:
How long can you use the telephone, internet, or cell phone in your area in the event of a widespread power failure?
@@RosaBeha Or just get ghosted 😂
That depends on how your ISP is setup or if the ISPs lines outside your city are cut. Sorry if the lines are down no internet. You may have to use your smartphone as a hotspot and get it that way.
Nics, i was looking for this❤
Some internet routers actually have a battery backup compartment as my parents AT&T have one for in case of power outage
Here during June 2022 power outages… 115 heat index 🥵
What unit is this? How much power does it put out? Do you have a model number etc.
It should be pointed out that the SLA (Sealed Lead Acid) Battery (or batteries) in the UPS will be most effective for about 3 years. Push it out to 4 or 5 years and that UPS might not be there for you when you need it most. Also, if at all possible, get an UPS with hot swappable batteries so you don’t have to power down the unit to swap out the batteries.
Thank God we have unlimited data for mobile devices
Mobile data is different than wifi lmao. Mobile data is not constant and slow. In WiFi you can get from 15 Mbps to 1gbps
If I just used my Bluetti EB3A power station with UPS mode on, and plugged my Spectrum modem/router into the AC outlet on it, I would have wifi even in a power outage (that didn't effect Spectrum)? 🤔 I was impressed with the idea of plugging Spectrum into a power brick (that has passthrough charging) by getting a USB-DCbarrel cable, but I already own the Bluetti (which has more horsepower, and works with the standard AC plug from Spectrum). Your video got me wondering if anyone else has tried one way or the other? 😎
Mavirek, please let me know how this works for you as I was just wondering if I could plug it into my Ecoflow. Out in the boonies so when power is out, everything is out. Thank you!
Will this help if I have voltage fluctuations in my old house which causes the internet to drop if I'm doing something like running the washing machine? By help I mean will my connection remain constant? I cannot afford to lose my connection as I perform phone calls for work
I have an old 1994 a PC that is capable of putting up 3 thousand Watts it has four large let acid batteries in series with 48 volts
I have one of those but the little power light is glitching out and the battery and screen are acting a bit weird
Bro's go APPLE ROUTER
A UPS is only as good as the battery. A basic UPS is likely rated to discharge the battery fully THREE times before the battery is totally dead. At any reasonable load the hold up time could be from one minute to five minutes. Some UPS have facility for additional battery banks to be added.
How accurate is the "battery time run"? Have you actually had a situation whereby an extended powercut has required the full battery run time? I'd be looking to use this purely for internet only.
Very accurate
I try this but were i live it did not work was told by verizon you still need power for there internet and i also live next to there internet subscription
banners pop up on screen and cover parts of video before its finished. Might want to rethink that.
So I have spectrum cable internet and I bought a Jackory battery backup. So would my internet work if I lose power? Would the coaxial cable still have power if my power goes out? Thank you
Plug your modem and router into the jackery and you are good to go.
I have a generac - when the electric goes out, I still have power EXCEPT with my spectrum hardwired internet because Spectrum relies on the power OUTSIDE of my home. How can I still have internet without spectrum when the power is out? Thank you for any help you can provide!
where is the model number, etc ????
Don’t you have data service tho? Like on ur cellular phone?
My modem is connected to my computer so if power goes off my computer and modem will stay on..is that correct?
I have the same issue as some of your other viewers. I have UPS for my TV and for my computers and routers and Spectrum’s modem. I lose power and all my devices stay up but I have no internet.
That could be that the no-power event also knocked out the internet lines feeding your house.
I have a whole home backup generator, but I don’t think xfinity works during a power outage sadly :( I think it might be worth looking into a 5g backup.
I have always wanted a whole home backup. I will probably eventually get a Tesla powerwall. However, there is still the 30-60 seconds before the transfer switch kicks in that everything loses power. This battery backup would make it where you never lost whatever is plugged into it.
@@garrettsite Yea, but doesn’t the cable generally go out when there is a power outage? So if the router/modem have power it still wouldn’t be getting service. I’m not sure how it works really. Or maybe if the amplifier they provide is powered it will work? It’ll be interesting to see. My generator is new, and the power has not yet gone out so i’ll have to see.
@@collynwallace4987 In my area I have noticed that the electricity goes out quite more frequently than the Internet. Sometimes when the electricity goes out the Internet does too but I would say for every 10 times the Electricity goes out the Internet will go out once.
@@garrettsite It sounds like you need to move. Jesus Christ that's a lot of power outages. I live in Texas and it almost never happens.
I couldn't get one hour of juce for only two devices, my router and my personal cloud device with a $350 ISP when they promess hours. So it is not worth it to spend a $1000-$1500 to get more hours for only two devices that don't consume much. If only I cant get the ISP but get to chose the size of the batteries, then I wil reconsider
Those things have one small 12v lead acid battery in them dont buy it, if you do get one with lithium batteries last way longer, your welcome !
"costs next to nothing" 🙄
Those ups battery back ups are expensive and they really don’t work that great tbh.
I tried plugging in my modem to my ecoflow power supply during an outage. The modem is on but no broadband. Could someone help me fix this?
Currently in Texas with at&t wifi
You have to plug both the modem and the terminal box it's Ethernet cable is plugged into into the power supply. Not sure if you have cable, but the terminal box is what a lot of people have their cable box also plugged into.
If power outage happens, does UPS keep my internet modem running without causing it to reboot?
Yes
UPS stands for uninterrupted power supply
@@garrettsite thanks!
can this work automatically keeping your wifi router running even if you are away from home?
That is exactly what it does
How is the noise level on these?
No noise at all
Can I plug a air conditioner into this as well
No
You need a much larger one for that.
All u need is a sla battery with a intverter
Where can I buy it ?

I pasted the link here. UA-cam deletes the link sometimes. Let me know if they do
140 min is not a long time..what would you suggest, if power is out for days? Thank you.
A whole home natural gas generator
Get a larger Power Bank. Wait for them to go on sale and get a good deal. I got the Bluetti AC180 for $640 on Black Friday. It's overkill maybe. But that's kinda the point. I wanted to be able to have plenty of power to keep Internet running for a few days while also being able to charge phones, laptops, and any other smaller appliances. It charges to fill capacity in under 2 hours. And charges from 0-80% in 45 minutes. So if needed, you can pop it in you're car when traveling to a different side of town and plug it in somewhere to charge it up pretty fast. You can also charge it in the car, although that is pretty slow. For a few hundred bucks more though, you can add some solar panels. And it takes 500 watts which is very good. I don't have those yet, but I will probably add them someday. Then you don't ever have to worry about completely running out of power. This is great for a few days of power outage where you aren't constantly running it. Just plug in the internet when you use it and unplug all you're devices after they are charged. For true emergencies you'd want to get a gas generator.
Well, those Spectrum idiots who serve out little rural coastal town have chosen NOT to have
any kind of power backup at their office in our town. SO whenever Pacific Power drops the
electrical load which happens 2 or 3 times each winter, Spectrum drops offline. When we try to
connect with a mobile device all we get is NO SERVICE The moment Pac Pwr restores power to
our town, Spectrum internet roars to life. I dont understand. They cant even go to our local Home
Depot or Harbor Freight store & buy a construction site gas genset to keep their service going
while PacPwr fixes their problem? I dont understand. Maybe I dont know all the facts but I bet
COMCAST would have us connected during power outages. Oh, and because our property outside
of town is surrounded by 80ft pine trees, Starlink is not an option.
!
I don't remember you saying how long the Wi-Fi stays on for $250
It shows on the screen 4 hours

Take the plastic wrap off the UPS. Fire Hazard it needs to have ability to vent heat.
Will do
Thanks
I live in the United Kingdom. My landline has been switched to VOIP, which means no phone or Internet in a power outage. I purchased an inexpensive UPS, and was slightly disappointed that the 10 watt load (Wireless Router and Cordless Phone) was powered for 2 hours and 50 minutes. So, unless you buy a MONSTER UPS, they're only good for short outages!
Perhaps a more cost effective and longer lasting emergency power system would be to power the Router directly via its 12 volt input from a large Lead Acid Deep Cycle Battery, which would keep the phones and Internet going a LOT LONGER than a farty little UPS?
WARNING: To avoid damage, you would need to observe CORRECT POLARITY, and avoid short circuits, which could cause fire! 🔥... If you don't know your technological arse from your elbow, don't attempt this at home! ... Buy a farty little UPS instead! 🤣
EDIT: It's amusing how Americans pronounce "Router" as "Row-ter" ("Row" as in an argument, not rowing a boat!), whereas we Brits pronounce it "Root-er!" 🤣 ... My sister-in-law is a Floridian, from Bradenton, now living here in the UK. I'll have to ask how she pronounces router.
ANOTHER EDIT: My UPS beeps to warn of an outage, but then mutes itself after a short while.
2 hours run time doesnt seem that long
If you want more, you have to spend more money and get a bigger unit.

Yeah you didn’t do what the topic and purpose of you video.. which is to show how to setup.
Not sure what you mean? You just plug it in? I even show how one side is battery backup and the other side is a power surge protector. Are you wanting me to show how to plug it into the wall outlet?
Useless.
So do you just keep the modem and router hooked up to the battery pack always and leave the battery pack charging always as well?
Yes
