[ARC5] UPS Transformers

[Peter Gottlieb]

I "picked up" a 5 kVA 120/240 pure sine long run UPS at the MIT flea for nothing. The guy didn't want to move it again, it weighed 125 pounds. It too takes 48 volts and I have eight 24 volt 100 AH lithium batteries in series parallel running it. It happily runs the house.
