Well, I now know my three UPS systems work! |
|
We just had a one-hour outage here, and kept the recording machines going the whole time!
YAY!

1. Do they scream at you like APC units do? |

I've always wondered how much battery power all that complaining uses.

3. Ours only give us about 20 minutes, (according to the directions) |

I've never tried to just leave the systems (cpu's & monitors)on I just turn them off. They (ups's) are really noisy.

So turning them off is the last thing I want to do!

Ten minutes this time...
Not a good day for the power company guys here.
Cold, rainy, windy.
They don't pay them enough for this.
