Requires Special Receptacle... June 5, 2008 Super Dave (Ada, Oklahoma) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a review demonstrating my experiences with the product, rather than a review of the performance of the product for reasons I will explain. br / br /I have never had to worry too much about UPS's, as most of the time, UPS's met or exceeded any power demands generated by the power supplies of my computers. In today's world, this fact is changing. With multiple cpu boards, and multiple PCI 2.0 cards power demands are on the rise, despite the lower power consumption of newer processors. With 1500W PSU's out there, a regular UPS wont do. I was in the process of having built a 1200W PSU computer, and I needed a UPS that could handle the job. br / br /UPS's are rated by their "VA" which is simply their volts times their amps. Normally, people are used to volts times amps equalling watts. This is not the case with batteries. Since they are supplying the current (as opposed to having a regulated current supplied through the power company), we must factor in their (UPS's) innate resistance to supplying that current. In most cases this can be a large factor, but in this case it is in neighborhood of 16%, since this 2200VA product supplies 1850W. br / br /My problem with this unit is simply the plug. It does not have a standard 15amp plug you would find at the back of the vast majority of computer equipment. Due to the high power demands, it uses a specialized plug which should be installed by an electrician. The plug is basically the same as a regular 120V plug except it is larger (I thought it was a 220 plug) and has one of the terminals turned horizontally. This plug requires a receptacle that is not the sort of receptacle you can find easily in a small town hardware store. br / br /I did not notice anything in the description to warn me of this, and I knew it took 120V input from other sources. In my naivete, I did not think it would require a special plug. This, is due to the fact I have never needed anything bigger than a 800VA in my life... and I didn't find out about the plugs in any of my research. I even had a 220 plug installed in my office in case it was needed. br / br /Still, the product seemed like a great one, and it is as heavy enough to impress anyone you can sucker into helping you move it. I think the freight shipper (yes, if you order you have to sign for it with the hand delivered freight shipper) said it weighed with the palette about 120 pounds. I only wish I was able to test it out... br / br /In the end, I ended up getting a higher than average efficiency 1500VA UPS (which most use standard 15amp plugs) which supplies 1200W. Most units you would pick up at the office supply store or electronics super store are not this efficient. This I think is the best option for the power hungry home power user. But with the reputation and quality and my past experience with APC, I am sure this unit would be a great investment for someone who has specialized plugs, or the service of an electrician handy...
