Hi,
I just got myself a Microtek UPS 625VA for 1550/- @ Delhi.
For starters the UPS works fine if I unplug it, switch it on & then turn on my rig. Didn't test out the back up duration, but it works.
However if I switch it on, turn on my rig & then unplug it from the wall socket (hence simulating a sudden power cut), then the UPS overloads because of the sudden power requirement from the battery.
My rig config is in my sig. My decade old Luminous Bravo 600VA doesn't overload albeit doesn't give backup either (battery issues every 2months, hence substituting it)
So any suggestions? Did I get a bad egg of a UPS, is my CX400 using too much power, should I get the 800VA model or just get the 600VA APC (the only one available for 1900/-)
Any ideas?
P.S. UPS works fine if it's just the monitor & the speakers, it's when (or only time) I plug the PSU plug does it overload on power outage.
