Ed, it's good to see ya back on RUclips! :D These are really good units indeed, although the fan is a little too noisy especially at night, here in India we have 1-2 hour power cuts almost every other day, so a UPS + home inverter is mandatory! :P I've got 2 brand new 12v UPS lead-acid batteries :D I wonder if I can wire them into the UPS (there is an external battery pack connector slot on the back, rated at 24volts but will need to find the exact connector, will look on e-bay) so a total of 4 batteries, 2 inside ups and 2 external should increase the backup time to at least 1 and a half hour. :D
When you switched the power from online to backup, the monitor flipped once? is that normal? i dont see that happening in other UPS i am using with a monitor
Hi, I always keep main switch ON. But what to do when there is power cut? Fan keeps running with irritating noise and cannot power on battery. I have to take out battery for 10 seconds and insert again to power on battery.
I don't mind the 11 minute battery life. It's plenty of time to shut the PC off properly. Although the new ones can give power for about 30 mins or more.
is it sine wave or square wave technology? Reply only if you are concern with this model or after on UPS is there any humming sound? Thanks in advance.
With help of powerChute software is also possible to shut down the other devices connected to which are on the same network like WD NAS Backup machine ?

I have purchased the same model but there are no two Data Ethernet ports which are above extra battery port .................I do have one LAN port which connects the Powerchute Software via usb ................Your answer is appreciatd
Those aren't Ethernet ports, those were RJ11 (telephone line surge protection for ADSL modems) seems like they have removed those from newer UPS models. And that isn't a LAN port either, connector looks the same, but its USB. Hope this helps. 😊
It charges just by plugging in, you don't need to switch the UPS on. Its also advisable to leave the mains on and switch power on and off using the power button on the UPS that way the battery remains charged and does not degrade. I still have original batteries and they still provide good backup.
I don't think surge protection has voltage regulation, it just protects the devices from voltage surge, its best to plug every device into the battery backup outlets.

It depends on what kind of a desktop it is, gaming desktops use more power so the backup will be a lot less, for normal office desktops, this should easily last about 30 mins.
just guesstimating here but on +700 watt pc its going to last seconds. i'll just get it for the surge protection and voltage spikes. my hardware dies from mostly voltage spikes, if it can protect me from that then its worth the price.

Yes, it will work great. Your new 4K 49 inch TV will consume half the power of this 10-year-old 32inch Sony TV, and PS4 Pro isn't that power-hungry either. So, should be great.

Sucks that UPS technology is so substandard..these companies seem to design their products around planned obsolescence and purposefully misaligned warranties. I wonder if they treat their more industrial / commercial customers the same way? Second only to the modern printers.
I run 2 of these now, good UPS!, found them at the scrap yard needing new batteries, put good ones in, nothing wrong with them!

Anytime! by the way if you are wondering this UPS still works and i've replaced the battery once!!
Should I use Surge only plug for my Studio monitors (Music) ? Will it regulate voltage going into the monitors?
I don't think surge protection has voltage regulation, it just protects the devices from voltage surge, its best to plug every device into the battery backup outlets.

Does anyone know how to reset the event back to 0 for on how many time it went on back my event is on 10 and I need to reset it back to 0
Can you please advise, how to switch on and off the UPS on a daily basis?
You should leave it turned on all the time, mine has been switched on ever since I started using it.
Is there any smaller version of this? 600 to 700 VA model?
Yes, but no screen or flashy flash lol
How much sensitivity should I set for this ups while using my ps4 and Panasonic full hd tv 42 inches it's on normal rn and my ps4 turn off when power cut sometimes should I increase the sensitivity how much sensitivity is your ups on rn?
I have kept the sensitivity on high change it within the Power chute software and that should solve your issue.
Should you turn off and unplug it after every use??
Nope! The UPS must ALWAYS have power, this is to maintain the charge in the batteries. Use the power button on the UPS to switch it off.

@@anshusrivastava2116 nope..battery dead
Thanks for in depth review, i was concerned that it might run loud at all times but fortunately it wont.
You're welcome and the fan only runs when the UPS is supplying power from the batteries and while its charging.
Thank you so much for the detailed review.
How many hours we will get power back up for using desktop.
It depends on what kind of a desktop it is, gaming desktops use more power so the backup will be a lot less, for normal office desktops, this should easily last about 30 mins.
How do you plug in a extra battery?
You'll need to buy one from APC. They are quite expensive, not worth it in my opinion.
