I just discovered the APC Back UPS 500 starts making a loud beep when its battery fails and you cannot disable it even though it would keep working on AC. mastodon.social/@gvy_dvpont/11…

@jon_alper @steveriggins Even my larger one for my computer with a USB connection—it relies on the host OS for comms. A few dollars would allow it to use Bluetooth or Wi-Fi to provide additional network-based data!

@steveriggins Could definitely be handy! I do wonder how good ‘battery health’ could be accurately assessed for a lead acid battery but yeah, advance warning to my phone would be great!

in reply to Michael W Lucas¹ :flan_mail: • • •aaaah that's why... Apparently Kickstarter sent me an email in the short time my domain expired when I was on vacation, so it bounced and they stopped trying to send me stuff.
I'm sure this is covered in the book somewhere under "don't bloody let your domains expire"
