Why even waste weight on battery at that point. That is a built in ups, not a portable device.

- londons_explore 6y agoA built in UPS is really helpful for moving from room to room around a home or office. For a long time I've wanted something with all the properties of a desktop PC, but the ability to move it to another room while booted and without having to do multiple journeys. A serious enough setup I could use it for work every day, yet still with the ability to take it to the living room to do stuff while supervising the kids...
- greggyb 6y agoPut the whole thing on a platform with casters and bolt the case and a UPS to the thing. With a solid metal base, you could put on a shelf for mouse and keyboard and a stand for a monitor. This seems like a pretty achievable project if you have access to a workshop.
- wl 6y agoYou can buy such a thing off the shelf. They're called "Workstations on Wheels" or "WoWs" and they're everywhere in medical facilities.
- djrogers 6y agoFor a device that may be deployed in or from a vehicle or locations which may or may not have 100% stable power, a built in UPS is great. Also, that 'ups' allows one to move the device around - it is called out as a mobile SOC.
