I feel like posting a few gratuitous photos of the UPS battery at work:
They're configured in three strings (white, yellow, and red), for which in each string, every single battery of that color is wired in series. (People who understand how electricity works will appreciate the ramifications of this. What the voltage on that string? Hella volts.)
I really don't know what the maximum runtime on the UPS is (several minutes at least), but it really only has to last long enough for this twin-turbo beauty to fire up:
The block heater on that engine draws 6kw.

Once a month into a resistor bank for testing.
That engine scares me when it's running....
Unrelated: I'm such a baller that I buy my hexene copolymers by the literal pallet-load:
Unrelated to unrelated:
Saw this recently. It's a 90s vintage Camaro with spray foam (eg: "Good-Stuff") shot into a rust hole in the rocker panel.
What is this supposed to accomplish, other than trapping water in the area and accelerating the rusting process?

watching this just reminds me of following all these tutorials on learning react.js over the weekend. Everything is completely done for you, you just have to go through the steps of recreating someone else's handwork to come up with the exact same end result...
and fwiw, as gay as freddie was, he actually sounded like a real man.
