QuestionHow many years can you use this device before it has to be replaced? How do you know when it has to be replaced?
Asked 3 years ago by Speedster.
- Answer I really can't say, since I just bought it a little more than a month ago. I would say that they last 7 - 10 years. By that time you'll want to have the latest technology anyway. This UPS Backup is so much better that the one I had. It takes up less space standing upwards and it's easy to turn off the sound, if your battery dies on you. I couldn't turn off the sound on my last one when the battery had to be replaced. It drove me crazy and I had to take a Lunch break from my job and go and pick this one up. What an improvement!

QuestionWill this device keep an atx desktop with a 760watt Atx power supply connected for at least a few minutes if power goes out?
Asked 5 years ago by VVVV.
- Answer It all depends on what your doing on your PC at the time the power goes out. Your power supply can handle up to 760 watts but that doesn't mean that's what it's drawing at all times. So if your PC is at idle (no applications running), then it's probably only using between 100-200 watts (It's all dependant on what hardware and peripherals are connected to your PC). However, even if your PC is under a load (actively running programs), it's likely only consuming 300-500 watts. Which means that in the event of a power outage, the UPS should stay on for at least as few minutes giving you more than enough time to properly turn off your PC.

QuestionHow long is the usb to computer cable? What is the Serial thats on the back for? would it be safe to put this on top of my computers sub, picture below.
Asked 5 years ago by preorder.
- Answer I cannot address the cable length portion of your question, preorder, but I can say that the battery backup is very heavy and I would not think that it should be placed on top of your computer’s subwoofer.

QuestionCan I use this sine wave UPS to protect my refrigerator?
Asked 2 years ago by Mike.
- Answer Battery and Surge Protected Outlets: The unit has 6 battery powered and surge protected outlets to ensure temporary uninterrupted operation of your equipment during a power failure. (DO NOT plug a laser printer, paper shredder, copier, space heater, vacuum cleaner, sump pump, or other large electrical device into the “Battery and Surge Protected Outlets.” The power demands of these devices will overload and possibly damage the unit.)
