Question 1

Input Voltage is 120V or 100V-220V?

Accepted Answer

Input voltage is 120V

Question 2

How long might this power a router and modem when the power goes out?

Accepted Answer

It depends entirely upon the draw of your equipment.  As there are many models of each I cannot tell you definitively without more information.  If you have the average cable modem and a single consumer router, I would be shocked if you didn't get greater than 30 mins of run time.  Probably even an hour or more.

I have a larger 1000VA until for my network gear.  Besides the router and modem, I also power a 2-drive NAS, external HDD backup for NAS, VoIP box, and 48-port business class switch.  I get >30 minutes run time with all that gear.

Question 3

What replacement battery does it take?

Accepted Answer

This unit uses APC RBC-154 Replacement Battery Cartridges.  They're easily found with an online search, look for either the UPS model BE670M1 or RBC154.

Question 4

Does this convert the input ALL THE TIME to a perfectly clean output? aka is this an "Online" type of UPS?

Accepted Answer

This is not a double conversion UPS. It has minimal line filtering capabilities other than a built-in surge protector.

Question 5

does it automatically shut down computer?

Accepted Answer

You can plug the communication port to your computer�s USB port and there should be a setting on the computer to shut down when the battery gets to a certain point.  Some computers may have to install software to do this.

Question 6

675 VA = 675 watts. So why is this unit rated at 360 watts?

Accepted Answer

VA Rating stands for Volt-Ampere Rating. It measures the capacity of an uninterruptable power supply (UPS). The VA is the number of volts the UPS can support multiplied by the number of amperes it can support.
Watts means the real power drawn by computing equipment. The ratio of the Watts to VA rating is called the Power Factor and is expressed either as a number (i.e. 0.7) or as a percentage (i.e. 70%). So Watts are the number of the VA rating multiplied by the Power Factor.

Question 7

Does this support Linux/Debian for a safe shutdown?

Accepted Answer

I believe so, although I haven't test this.  The units appear to support the "APC Smart Protocol", which is pretty standard and well supported.  I have 2 of these hooked up to MikroTik routers and they can show the model, serial number, and various status elements just fine.

Question 8

During a power outage, can you disable the beep/chirp/annoying sounds while using it to recharge phones, run LED light, etc. & such?

Accepted Answer

The Powerchute personal software which you can download has the option to control under which circumstances the unit will issue audible alerts.  I believe you can disable them totally.

Question 9

How much run time at 5% load?

Accepted Answer

Not sure but I usually figure I have 10-15 minutes for a regular computer that is attached along with the monitor.

Question 10

will this unit directly mount to a wall (mounting hole slots) without a shelf?

Accepted Answer
