Battery Powered ADSL Router

Did you know that you can run your ADSL Router on a 12 volt battery? In the video below you will see how that’s possible using a standard 12v 7ah battery which are fairly in-expensive and can be found at most hardware stores. This is a great backup solution when the power goes out and you still want internet access to pass the time, running your ADSL router on batteries you are still able to connect to the internet via WiFi or cable LAN. Most routers draw about 1amp of power so theoretically on a 7ah battery you should be able to power your router for about 5 hours.
