Wonder what would happen if you put a big cap in place of the batt. From: Sterling Jacobson Sent: Monday, November 02, 2015 1:27 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [AFMUG] OT: Testing APC units - probably a dumb question
Yes, they probably do need the batteries to even respond. At least the few that I’ve used over the years, they don’t do anything, even if plugged in, if the batts are dead or removed. From: Af [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Paul McCall Sent: Monday, November 2, 2015 12:47 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [AFMUG] OT: Testing APC units - probably a dumb question We have a bunch of surplus larger (2K plus) 110v APCs that we acquired without batteries, part of a larger lot of “stuff”. Do they have to have batteries in them to even power on? First few we tried don’t power up, and before I chase my tail or jump to conclusions, I figured I would ask. Paul Paul McCall, Pres.
