This is insane,totally insane!
I mean this is 21st century and still so long unpredictable power-cuts that too on a regular basis!What the hell!!
Indian Government sucks totally!!
I have been quite for a very long!But now no more.In my area,the power cuts are not predicted and neither scheduled.Once the power is gone,even God doesn't knows when it will return,last night the cut was of 18hrs(continuous:shock:)
Please suggest me a power-cut solution as early as possible,4 days have been passed and i am not able to even take food:hyper::hyper: then how can i sleep in the night:-x
I want a good solution that could run a AC-1 ton,a Dell Laptop(XPS15),a 24 inch HD LED Monitor,2 Fans,2 Tubelights,5 CFls and 1 Cooler.
Budget is 60k max.

Set up a domestic nuclear reactor in your backyard. Will provide uninterrupted power for 100 years.

Will you regularly supply him with uranium or plutonium for generating nuclear energy ? :p

Give me the amount for that and i will setup that nuclear reactor:wink:
The budget is 60K and i need the solution seriously,this is not a joke at all!!

I am sorry, I was in a bad mood then, was sacked from my project.

Since your requirements are heavy, I think you need to invest in a heavy duty generator. There are some from Kirloskar, not sure about prices.

Generator:No,not at all!
It's running cost is not economically good,i mean:spending on Diesel/Kerosene/Petrol is not worth it!Need a Inverter/UPS Solution within that Budget.

Try su-kam fusion series 3.5 kva commercial ups with four 135ah amaron quanta batteries. It is a pure sine wave ups and capable of running 1 ton ac and other home appliences . And it is with in your budget range.

Inverter in your case? :lol:
when will you "recharge" the battery?
genset is the only option, or go 'Solar power', initial cost will be 2-3 times your current budget. :p

I doubt if the backup is even half hour for running AC?
And @mvb4u,what are these amaron quanta batteries?are they different from SMF batteries?

Amaron Quanta batteries are VRLA-SMF batteries (Valve Regulated Lead Acid Sealed Maintenance Free).

According to the manufacturer with 200 Ah batteries you can run the following load for 3.5 hrs.
29" T.V. - 1, Fans-2, Tube-lights -2, CFL -2, 1 Ton A/c -1, 360 L Refrigerator - 1.

nuclear reactor is not a bad idea if you can get yourself away from the cops..........how much are you willing to shed out.........i am doing a thesis on power consumption if you can pay the bills i might just have a solution

So, what's the harm in it?
Power cuts are ubiquitous, and since summers are approaching again, we'll go with hours long power cuts all through out the day as well as in the night, no sleep, no water (since our electric water pumps won't get power).

you will have drinking water at least if you use a water purifier inbuilt with a a large storage tank.and some small water pumps like 0.5 hp power can run on inverters too
