My question would be, what kind of runtime will this proposal provide ?

To mitigate this, we'd like to convert it onto a DC battery bank system. This requires 2 new item purchases: 1) A 24V battery bank to run the site for a few days in case of power outage 2) A DC PDU (Power Distribution Unit / PoE injector) to control and monitor power usage The battery bank is $500 for 240Ah @ 24V. The PDU is $231.03. The total for this spending request is therefore $731.03. Only directors may vote to approve the spend, but anyone is welcome to comment with input during the next 24 hours.
