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'.
