“I have a phrozen sonic mini 8k resin 3d printer. Lets estimate that it can operate for 13 min on battery. Supposing the power is only out for 2 min. Will it resume normal power once the outage has stopped? Or is my 13hr print ruined. Is my guess good?”

Thank you for taking time to provide feedback about our BN1500M2 unit. Based on specs of Phrozen Sonic Mini 8k resin printer online it uses around 50 watts but adaptor requirement is 24 V 3 amps or 72 watts. Since Load is less than 10% the UPS may not report runtime properly but assuming that printer is at 90 watts which I see as 1h 14min See "Run time for load " and enter wattage at BN1500M2's product page https://www.se.com/us/en/product/BN1500M2/apc-backups-pro-1500va-tower-120v-10-nema-515r-outlets-lcd-1-usb-type-c-+-1-usb-type-a-ports/ Runtime will also vary depending on efficiency, load and battery capacity. Typical life span of batteries is 3-5 years and will degrade depending on temperature and charge discharge rate (approximately 200 cycles on Sealed lead acid batteries) Data on product page is based on brand new APC batteries and brand new UPS. When UPS goes on of and on battery there will be a transfer time since we have physical relays. Transfer time of UPS will vary from model to model most Backups Pro units have 6-8 milliseconds depending on sensitivity see article "Equipment connected to a Back-UPS product turns off unexpectedly and/or reboots." https://www.se.com/us/en/faqs/FA158811/ If equipment can handle transfer time but it needs to be really short Changing sensitivity of UPS can reduce transfer time BN1500M2 is normally set at medium and setting it to high will allow you to get 6ms and Low setting will give you around 8ms. See Page 5 of "User Guide " on how to change sensitivity https://download.schneider-electric.com/files?p_enDocType=User+guide&p_File_Name=BU+UM+990-91002A+MN01+EN.pdf&p_Doc_Ref=SPD_AHUG-AKMCPW_EN If setting to highest sensitivity does not work look for a UPS that does not have transfer time see SRT and SRTL and other Double online conversion UPS.
