RE: [datacenter] Flywheel ups
Also you say you need 10 MIN of ride through. Powerware's flywheel
system has 120 SEC (2MIN) of ride through and an MG set isn't going to
give you 5 times the ride through if you have 1/5th the load like a UPS.

You probably also realize that the maintenance (lubrication, bearings,
etc) on a flywheel easily exceed the amount of maintenance on a sealed
battery system.
The difference (mainly) is that you have relatively uniform maintenance
costs instead of the jagged-saw tooth (with battery replacement) that
UPS systems have.
