Putting UPS's in series?
Hi!
Have you looked into replacing the UPS battery with a larger capacity one? This does not always work, especially if the UPS manufacturer never intended for larger batteries to be used. The charging system may behave improperly, especially with a cheap UPS. This is the preferred (and more elegant) way to get longer power-up time. One also has to consider the health and well being of the inverter. It may not be able to take the added runtime if things are already close to the limits. Again, I'd see this as more of a problem with a cheap UPS than a good or even moderate quality unit. William |

Doesn't that then also imply that the UPS is being used in a context for which the UPS manufacturer never intended? rick jones -- firebug n, the idiot who tosses a lit cigarette out his car window these opinions are mine, all mine; HP might not want them anyway... feel free to post, OR email to rick.jones2 in hp.com but NOT BOTH... |
