[Boatanchors] 1500 VA APC UPS Available For Just The Shipping - Needs Work

[Robert Downs]

During the most recent Houston floods, we lost commercial power (twice) for
several hours (and I discovered that the battery was dead on my generator,
but that's another story).  When commercial power came back up, the UPS
started OK on inverter but every time that it would try to switch back to
Line the green AC IN lamp would come on briefly and then it would go back to
inverter.  After several cycles of that, I pulled the plug.  And as soon as
the water had gone back down far enough for my Land Rover to negotiate, I
went and bought a new one.

 

I considered fixing it and keeping it as a spare but decided that I don't
have the time right now.  I have the original box to ship it in.  The
battery in it was installed 02/2018.  So I can either send it or not.  The
replacement battery is still available from APC.
