What’s the underlying filesystem on a nextcloud server? ZFS? Or something else.
Comment on DC UPS for router?

I mean, there are 12V native battery systems out there, stuff like vehicle stuff.
Assuming that the 12V power supply on the router is permissive enough to take a certain amount of variation, I imagine that you can probably just put a 12V deep-cycle battery on the thing on the thing and directly hook up a 12V charge controller in parallel.
I dunno whether there’s some sort of voltmeter that you can connect NUT up to.
Personally, my position is that if NextCloud or whatever can’t handle power loss without corrupting data, that’s a bug with NextCloud. I mean, sure, it might not be able to complete an operation if there’s power loss while it’s running, but that shouldn’t result in corrupt data.

You can install nextcloud on any file system afaik. Mine is btrfs. But yes, I’ve had database corruption with power failure.

How would you wire the barrel style adapter directly to the battery, and charge it at the same time?
Same way existing systems work. The charger just moves the voltage somewhat up above 12V. Under normal use, the battery drops slightly below 12V. That’s why I’m saying that the power supply on thr device would need to be tolerant enough to handle a bit of a range.
