Say you leave it fully charged and you lose 10% usable capacity a year. 5 years in and you have a large-scale power outage, and you were smart enough to buy a beefy ups (and maintain that battery) to power your NAS and network equipment, but because you didn't with the phone, you lose DNS after like 2.5 hours (phone pihole) because the phone is dead. Now what are you going to do, just not look at porn on plex and weep because you can't browse lemmy in the dark? smh, forward thinking would have saved you. Now you gotta get the magazines to fap and make shitposts in mspaint until the grid comes back up.
Treat your batteries well. Enjoy your porn. Make power outages bearable.
Edit: I have a total of 4 ups units for a reason taps forehead
I think I may have figured out the reason.
;3
4 UPSs with maintained batteries but using only an android phone for pihole? I imagine at the 2nd or 3rd UPS you would at least consider a more dedicated device to run pihole and have some redundancy
I dunno, it's not my theoretical situation. I have no idea how you'd even run a ph on a smartphone, I thought the most basic thing it will run on is a raspberry pi. Using wlan for both in and out isn't best practices too afaik. I'm just trying to give an example why you shouldn't just abuse tech 'just because'.
