WOW! That’s one hell of a deal. You’ve convinced me XD I’m installing pangolin Right now. The hell with Cloudflare and their evil ways

What an absolute gigachad XD

I’m currently using CF Tunnels and I’m thinking about this (I have pretty good offers for VPS as low as $4 a month)

Can you comment on bandwidth expectations? My concern is that I also tunnel Nextcloud and my offsite backups and I may exceed the VPS bandwidth restrictions.

BTW I’m testing Pangolin which looks AWESOME so far.

You already have a lot of good answers … but I got one more to add.

I have a very similar setup on my homelab and I’m using a Cloudflare tunnel.

It’s a free service and it’s really good because it allows you to expose web services and specific ports for remote access over dynamic IPs without having to expose your own router.

Highly recommend Tripplite

I got me one of these used (with good batteries) for $100

They have an external connector in the back for adding external batteries and the menu to do so is analog.

I added a golf cart battery to mine tripping the capacity for very very cheap.

Look in the used market.

If you want something better, Eaton is the go to, look for used deals in marketplace / craigslist. I found someone selling Used industrial Eaton UPSs with extended batteries for 150$ the set
