12V PSUs, a truck battery and smart charger. (-:
Replacing the battery costs you about $100 every 2-3 years. A truck battery
runs a PC for a very long time.
For the ultimate along these lines, Paraburdoo's hilltop relay transmitter for
their two-ways (constantly busy) was kept running for over 6 weeks on a pair
of Cat batteries, one charge, after a cyclone deleted the power line from the
hill.
