First I ran the UPS self test, which it passed. I then connected a space heater on low to the UPS and removed ac power from the UPS. It switched to battery power (showing 25-50%) and I let it run for 5 min. I then switched the heater to high and ran for a further 5 min (showing 50-75% load). I restored the ac input and the UPS went back to normal operation. It seems like the UPS and its batteries are basically good except for the periodic glitch which we've seem before where it thinks the is no ac power even though the ac power is good. ___end___ WEATHER COMMENT: stueben: Wed Jul 11 01:09:57 GMT 2018 Still cloudy. ___end___ GENERAL COMMENT BY stueben: Wed Jul 11 01:24:20 GMT 2018 No data today, cloudy all day. ___end___ ONSITE STAFF: stueben
