APC BE700Y-IN .cost arnd 3.7k

 

[bajaj151]

700VA enough for my configuration ?

 

[pulkitpopli2004]

yeah.. absolutely.. we have similar config.. i have the same UPS

 

[bajaj151]

What's the next best option ?

Where can I find APC or Microtek UPS in delhi ?

Which oneis more VFM, Microtek or APC ?

 

[havoknation]

even APC600VA would be sufficient

purchase APC600VA from cost2cost Nehru place..
or APC 700VA from smc..

 

[bajaj151]

If I upgrade my PSU from 550W to 850W...Should 700VA suffice for 10-15min backup ?

 

[pulkitpopli2004]

yes its ok.. bt it depends to what all components that PSU is giving current.
so if your config goin to be same and only PSU will be changed.. 700VA wud suffice your need of 10-15min maximum..

 

[bajaj151]

I just gonna add 2 or 3 SATA HDD & sound card...thats it

 

[pulkitpopli2004]

not an issue in that case.. coz HDD take only 10-15watts usually..

 

[bajaj151]

Why is APC 1kVA costlier than 1.1kVA ??

 

[pulkitpopli2004]

^^ because
1. 1kVA has auto shutdown feature which lacks in 1.1kVa
2. battery rating in 1kvA is better than 1.1KVa
3. so better back up with 1kVA rather than 1.1KVA

 

[bajaj151]

Is it worth buying 1kVA (around 7.3k) ?

 

[pulkitpopli2004]

Do u have back up requirement of around 15min on full load?
and need features like

[bajaj151]

No..I can't able to find APC 1.1kVA in District Center, Janakpuri...Will search in Nehru place...SMC also suggesting 1kVA....(SMC said : 1.1kVA wala ups bakwas h... )


Offtopic question : How laptop battery provides 3 hr backup costing just 4-5k whereas UPS can't for the same price ?

 

[pulkitpopli2004]

^^ In Nehru place it would be easily available. or you can try online also.. but buy only Indian version..


Laptop battery provides 3hrs backup becoz laptop consumes only a 20-80W but in desktop 200 to 800W is required depending upon the configuration.

 

[bajaj151]

How to check, whether India version or not ?

Is 5.3k for 1.1KVA ok ?

 

[pulkitpopli2004]

by its socket only.. it should similar to ur power sockets at home.
