Questioncan i use the battery backup with a hdtv?
Asked 10 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Thank you for your inquiry. Yes, it is possible to use this Back-UPS with your HDTV. However, you will just want to check the specs for your television to ensure this unit is appropriately sized for your equipment. The BX1300G is rated for 780 watts and 1300 VA. Please also note that this unit provides a stepped approximated sine wave while on battery power. This is not an issue for standard IT equipment, but you will want to see if your TV requires a pure sine wave or not.

- Answer That is exactly what I purchased this unit to do. My power went out but the unit worked so I never lost my phone service which meant my alarm continued to work.

QuestionHow long does the backup system run if it is connected to a home security system?
Asked 9 years ago by Jane.
- Answer I don't have the answer to this, just wanted to point out that it would be very difficult to accurately answer the question without prior knowledge of the power demands of said system. Perhaps the documentation of the security system has information about peak draw / usage. If it does, you should be able to do some comparison between peak draw and max output of UPS and get a ballpark idea.

QuestionCan I also plug in those 6-8 xtra plug power strips?
Asked 9 years ago by Peter.
- Answer Peter: It shouldn't be a problem as long as the load does not exceed specifications of the UPS. I plug 8-port Belkins into them all the time and have never had a problem.
