[Motorola] MTR-2000 Battery Revert Questions

[KBØNLY]

I was told by one owner that its a little more complicated than that.. I 
think he said something about there being other voltages coming off the 
supply?  And the 28v would require a second Astron besides the one supplying 
the 14v.

What they ended up doing is going with a rack mount UPS system they got used 
and attached an external battery bank to that to add to the runtime.

The manuals are  vague about 14 or 28V battery revert in the MTR-2000
low or high-power repeaters.
Motorola insists on using "their" revert unit.
I saw a few Batlab posts about someone using another unit, or making
their own....

Couldn't you just disconnect the AC power, and run the repeater from a
DC supply with it's own
revert and trickle system-  such as an Astron BB- series?

Thanks
