00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:07.839
We're here at FSP's booth at Computex 2025 where they have this computer

00:00:05.759 --> 00:00:12.480
connected to this power supply. Wouldn't it be a sin if someone just Wait,

00:00:10.000 --> 00:00:18.680
there's no AC source, but the computer is still running. That's because this

00:00:15.040 --> 00:00:21.439
power supply has a battery backup

00:00:18.680 --> 00:00:26.400
integrated inside of it, which means that even if your power goes out, your

00:00:23.760 --> 00:00:30.720
computer does not go off. Now, here at Shortcircuit, we strongly recommend that

00:00:28.240 --> 00:00:35.360
everybody has a UPS connected to their computer. That is an uninterruptible

00:00:32.719 --> 00:00:39.840
power supply. And basically, between your wall plug and your computer is a

00:00:37.920 --> 00:00:43.920
battery backup so that when the power goes out, you don't get power surges

00:00:41.760 --> 00:00:48.320
going in your computer. You can save all of your files and power it down safely

00:00:46.239 --> 00:00:53.120
before it just shuts right off. And overall, it is a really good investment.

00:00:50.719 --> 00:00:58.640
But that said, hey Dylan, do you have a UPS on your computer? I do not. Do you

00:00:55.680 --> 00:01:03.320
have a UPS on your computer? I don't either. Terrible. Everyone is terrible

00:01:01.120 --> 00:01:11.600
for this. Which is where the Inner Cube 550M comes in. FSP has been able to cram

00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:14.560
an entire UPS into this 550 W power

00:01:11.600 --> 00:01:20.320
supply, which means that even if your AC source completely goes away, you can see

00:01:17.280 --> 00:01:22.320
that right here. AC power is gone, but

00:01:20.320 --> 00:01:26.960
your whole computer is still working because it has six battery cells inside

00:01:24.960 --> 00:01:30.960
of it that are able to deliver all of the voltage that you need. This is going

00:01:28.880 --> 00:01:35.759
to be really good, especially as AI and everything makes maybe your power less

00:01:33.200 --> 00:01:41.200
reliable because they're using all of that energy to generate cat gifts and

00:01:38.560 --> 00:01:45.840
crap like that. But you don't have to worry about that if you have one of

00:01:43.280 --> 00:01:50.159
these. It also is way more efficient than a typical UPS because if you think

00:01:48.399 --> 00:01:54.960
about it, if you have a battery backup between your wall outlet and your

00:01:52.159 --> 00:01:59.920
computer, you have to have AC from the wall into your battery backup, which

00:01:57.360 --> 00:02:04.880
does AC to DC conversion, which then has to do DC toAC conversion to put it into

00:02:02.560 --> 00:02:09.920
your power supply, which then does AC to DC conversion so that you have DC into

00:02:07.119 --> 00:02:14.720
your computer. The NRX Cube is much better than that because you only have

00:02:11.760 --> 00:02:19.840
one single DC conversion because you know you have your AC power in charges

00:02:17.520 --> 00:02:25.040
up your batteries that's all DC and when your power goes out then it just has DC

00:02:22.560 --> 00:02:30.400
to DC which is incredibly efficient. So we're able to get the absolute most out

00:02:26.800 --> 00:02:32.319
of our 153Wh capacity of the batteries

00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:37.440
inside of here. If you have your computer running at absolute full tilt

00:02:35.200 --> 00:02:41.120
550 watts, you'll be able to get something like 16 minutes of battery

00:02:39.680 --> 00:02:45.760
life out of this thing before your computer has to safely shut down. But

00:02:43.920 --> 00:02:49.840
that said, if you're doing like more of a normal load, you'll probably get like

00:02:47.680 --> 00:02:55.040
30 or so minutes before it's going to all turn off. Also, on the back right

00:02:52.080 --> 00:02:59.280
here, we have USB power out. So, you can do power delivery from your power supply

00:02:57.519 --> 00:03:03.040
directly into your monitor if it supports that. So when the power goes

00:03:01.280 --> 00:03:08.640
out, you can just continue working and it is not a huge deal. The NRX Cube 550M

00:03:06.800 --> 00:03:13.680
is a switching power supply just like how I'm switching to this segue to our

00:03:10.879 --> 00:03:17.680
sponsor SY. Thanks Sy for sponsoring our 2025 Competiteex coverage. Traveling

00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:20.720
abroad can be scary, but with proper preparation, you can rest a bit easier

00:03:19.519 --> 00:03:24.400
and that includes knowing that you'll have access to all the necessary apps

00:03:22.560 --> 00:03:28.239
and resources that you need. With Saley's eim plans, you're covered in

00:03:26.400 --> 00:03:31.519
over 200 destinations, which means you'll get connected as soon as you

00:03:29.760 --> 00:03:34.720
land. Simply set up the app before you fly out and leave your worries behind.

00:03:33.200 --> 00:03:38.840
And if you run into any issues along the way, their 24/7 chat support will lend

00:03:36.879 --> 00:03:42.480
you a hand. So head to sail.com/shortcircuit or download the

00:03:40.480 --> 00:03:46.959
app and use code shortcircuit for 15% off a sale data plan. Another benefit of

00:03:44.879 --> 00:03:52.159
the solution that they're using lithium iron phosphate batteries. And they said

00:03:49.200 --> 00:03:57.920
it'll have about a 10year life. And at 10 years, it's going to be at about 80%,

00:03:55.200 --> 00:04:04.239
which is so much better than a typical UPS using lead acid batteries. Lead acid

00:04:01.200 --> 00:04:06.159
batteries might only last like 2 or 3

00:04:04.239 --> 00:04:11.519
years before you have to replace them. And I know that has been a huge pain in

00:04:08.480 --> 00:04:14.000
the ass at our office, just having to go

00:04:11.519 --> 00:04:17.840
in, they start beeping and crap. It's really expensive and really heavy to

00:04:15.760 --> 00:04:21.919
replace those batteries. So, you don't have to worry about that here. And that

00:04:20.079 --> 00:04:26.960
said, even if the batteries inside of this unit do fail, it fails like an

00:04:24.400 --> 00:04:31.840
escalator. So you can come in here and just simply turn off the BMS solution.

00:04:29.919 --> 00:04:36.960
Then the batteries are not involved in the process at all. So it will still

00:04:34.479 --> 00:04:40.639
function just as a normal power supply. But unfortunately, it will not be

00:04:38.400 --> 00:04:44.720
protecting your computer as it normally would. Another thing that's worth

00:04:42.000 --> 00:04:50.560
mentioning is that the Browno tests in our power supply testing for PSU circuit

00:04:47.360 --> 00:04:53.360
have been a shockingly lethal test. So

00:04:50.560 --> 00:04:58.720
that is just simply turning on and off your AC power really quick. It has

00:04:56.160 --> 00:05:02.800
killed three power supplies in our testing. Whereas this one right here,

00:05:00.240 --> 00:05:08.320
you can see uh the outage tally is currently at 129. Can we make it go up a

00:05:05.600 --> 00:05:13.840
bit? There we go. Now it's at 130. It could not care less. So, if you have

00:05:10.639 --> 00:05:15.840
absolute junk power, I would highly,

00:05:13.840 --> 00:05:19.919
highly recommend one of these. Currently, unfortunately, we don't have

00:05:17.680 --> 00:05:26.479
any pricing, but it is expected to come out Q3, maybe Q4 later this year, and at

00:05:23.840 --> 00:05:33.120
the moment, it only goes up to 550 watts. That said, though, FSP has also

00:05:29.680 --> 00:05:34.880
made this,000 watt SFX power supply. So,

00:05:33.120 --> 00:05:38.880
uh, I think it's safe to say that if the demand's there and people really want

00:05:36.880 --> 00:05:43.120
it, they could fit quite a few more watts into a power supply of this size.

00:05:41.520 --> 00:05:47.360
I really hope that they do come out with higher wattages of this power supply in

00:05:45.199 --> 00:05:51.520
the future because I really want just a little bit of extra peace of mind in my

00:05:49.440 --> 00:05:55.199
PC, just like I really want to. Thank you for watching this video. Huge thanks

00:05:53.520 --> 00:05:59.759
for watching. Hit like, get subscribed, and I hope you have a great old day.

00:05:56.639 --> 00:05:59.759
I'll see you at the next booth.
