The short answer is, because we care about our customers and have designed & built UPS (Uninterrupted Power Storage) especially for Indian conditions. There is a longer answer too, read on.

We have built our product line to meet what you need. While we have all known how important connectivity has become over the years, since year 2020 when the world changed with a raging pandemic, everyone realized the importance of enabling un-interrupted computing at home to help you get information, continue to learn and earn, reach out to your family, friends, doctors, lawyers, partners and customers. We have applied our deep expertise in EV (Electric Vehicle) grade battery technology, decades of experience in complex engineering endeavors worldwide, our knowledge, experience and a deep understanding of the behavior of LiIon cells to build UPS for routers, monitors, laptops and other small devices to keep you going during power failures, so common in India. All our products have a best in class warranty of 3 years - a warranty not given by any other manufacturer. We brought the techniques used by the leading EV manufacturers to you in a small package.

Powering a wi-fi router, keeping you laptop charged or using that critical second monitor through frequent power cuts in India is a challenge unique to India and a few other countries. We designed and manufacture our UPS to meet the specific needs – an unreliable power grid, a hot and humid climate, need for durability, and our conviction that we as a country, need to become independent in developing and implementing technology.

India has an average power outage of 3-4 hours but some areas get power failures in double digit hours. Some of you need a very short backup time of just 1-2 hours – to support uninterrupted internet while a generator kicks in. Others need a backup for 10-11 hours. Most of you have 12V routers but some of you have 9V, 5V or 19V devices. Most routers take 0.6 – 1.5 A, some gaming routers take up to 4.5A - We have a product range that covers most, if not all use cases, For the others who have even niche needs we offer a custom UPS design and build. We also have solutions for configurations where the WiFi router and DSL/ADSL modem are separate. For such setups, you don’t need to buy two separate UPS, our dual-device setup will meet needs for most of you.

Many of you need to power your stationary devices like CCTV, security camera, NAS devices (like Synology, Western Digital and Asus) and possibly other devices we have not thought of. Reach us out and based on your make and model, we can advise you best products that will provide you best back-up.

With long power cuts, sometimes even laptop batteries are not enough. With our 220V product line you can charge laptops, run your extra monitor or run TVs (see storage capacity and device power supported in product pages)

Many of you ask us about (and possibly have even tried) using power banks for powering your WiFi/internet in case of power interruptions. While it is possible to do, it is not very practical/economical, and it can be dangerous. Li Ion cells contain a lot of stored energy and in-appropriate/un-controlled charging/discharging can damage the cells or even cause accidents. We have patent pending technology to insure the best use of the cells for the longest life while operating safely. An intelligent Battery management System (BMS) with patent pending technology enables us to give you peace of mind with a 3 years warranty. Unlike power banks, we have protection mechanisms to avoid such failures.Our focus is not just selling you a product and making a quick buck. We have three key ethos in designing, building and selling our products (both current and future)

ENABLE - First and foremost, with our energy storage products we intend to enable uninterrupted power for you and develop indigenous capability - all while saving the planet in the long run.

EDUCATE - For us it is not only about selling products. It is also about learning & educating us all about our energy consumption, options and how we leave this world better than we found ourselves in.

ENGAGE - To make an impact, we see solving YOUR challenges as our key goal. Reach out to us for specific energy storage needs and we will look to incorporate them in our future product lines or build custom products for you if we can.

An Uninterruptible Power Supply(UPS) is an electrical device that provides power to a load even when the input source (usually mains power) fails (is interrupted). Most UPS provide near instantaneous backup but many solutions have a short interruption or variation in voltage/current. The backup can be provided by any energy storage technology like batteries, super capacitors or flywheels, stored potential energy - but most are based on batteries. You can read more about UPS in this Wikipedia Page on UPS.

Usually UPS are used to operate critical computer, medical or other electrical workload to make sure any interruptions, voltage fluctuations, brownouts (extended low voltage) or extended power outages do not impact these workloads. They are used to avoid any data loss, data corruption, impact to patients or availability of critical information for any other products/services.

Described in simple terms there are primarily two types of UPS Standby and Online.

A Standby UPS (also called offline UPS) passes through mains power in normal operation and upon power failure does a fast switch over and turns on a battery operated inverter to supply power to the electrical workload. There is usually a very small delay (milli second) in the cutover. The standby UPS are AC (Alternating Current) UPS, meaning the output is similar to mains power and many are designed for providing backup power to IT workload for short period of time (15-30 mts) while the backup power comes back. Most standby UPS use Lead Acid batteries, these are similar to batteries used in cars.

An Online UPS has circuit where by the inverter is always on and supplying power to the workload. Most of these UPS are designed for critical workloads so there is no interruption. Most of these UPS available in the market are also based on Lead-Acid batteries and provide a short backup.

Most conventional UPS use Lead-Acid batteries. The same kind used in your car. Lead-Acid batteries are proven and times tested but they are heavy, have a significantly lower depth of discharge (meaning more capacity is needed), have a short lifespan and contain liquids (acids). Lead-Acid batteries have worked well for short duration backup power needed for professional data center equipment but for home router use, having a UPS that is 25 times the volume of a router for an hour or so of backup is not a practical and economical solution

Our UPS uses LiIon (Lithium Ion) cells. Same type of cells that power your cell phone and most of the electric vehicles. These batteries are smaller (they have over three times the energy density of Lead Acid batteries), are efficient (do not generate much heat or any vapors) and last longer.

As explained above, most conventional UPS are based on Lead-Acid batteries and provide and AC output using an inverter. This is where our Router UPS is fundamentally different.

We use LiIon cells in router UPS. LiIon cells as materially smaller (energy dense), are more efficient, can take much higher depth of discharge and most important of all, have a long lifespan. The picture below compares a conventional UPS with a router UPS. Our router UPS is almost 1/50 in volume to a conventional UPS. Yes 1/50th the size. The difference between size and volume is primarily due to battery type and efficient design.

Additionally for you as a user, most Lead Acid battery based conventional UPS come with a warranty of 6-12 months. We are able to provide you with a warranty of 3 years.

Another key difference is that our UPS is a DC online UPS. A conventional UPS converts mains AC power to DC to charge the battery. This DC power from battery is then converted to AC using an inverter. All routers electronics work using DC power and the router adaptor converts this AC from inverter back to DC. In our Online DC UPS we are able to skip this AC ⇢ DC ⇢ AC ⇢ DC conversions, thereby making our UPS smaller, reliable and efficient.

Most DC UPS available in the market today work with 12V devices only. We recognize that may newer WiFi Routers operate at different voltage. We have solutions for 12V/9V/5V/19V WiFi routers. We can also build custom UPS for different voltage or embedding inside your special device.

Battery of a conventional Lead Acid based UPS lasts 1-2 years. Most such UPS come with a warranty of 6-12 months only. Many provide no warranty for battery at all. Our LiIon battery based router UPS come with a warranty of 3 years and the expected usable lifespan of five years. Since we have designed and manufacture our products in India, we can service them also (unlike the imports)

The UPS configuration you will need depends on three key parameters

• Current rating of your router (in Ampere)
• Voltage rating of your router (Most are 12V, some are 9V and there are a very few that are 19V or 5V)
• Hours of backup you need - this depends on how much power outage you have

Best way to find the voltage and current rating of your router is to look at the label on the adapter of your router. It will look something like this

While technically you can use a power bank for supplying power to your WiFi router in case of power outage, there are a few things you needs to be aware of.

• most power-banks are not designed to be powered on all the time and provide no thermal balancing
• power-bank output is usually a USB-A type and provide 5V. To power a WiFi router you will need a special cable that converts from USB-A to a DC barrel type. Then you will need a voltage adjustment circuit to convert that voltage to 12V/9V/19V as per the need of your router
• you will also need a special charging circuit that charges the cells continuously yet does not damage the batteries in the process (in our case we have a patent pending charging-discharging design that extends the battery life)
• some of the WiFi routers are voltage sensitive and you may also need a voltage equalizer circuit, else as the power bank drains, your WiFi router will shut off

So unless you have experience with electronics and have the right equipment it may be hard to leverage a power bank as a WiFi router UPS.
