I can't seem to get the longer battery tests to actually run:

test.battery.start
test.battery.start.deep

Both appear to leave the battery voltage at line-power levels; while the
quick test does have a notable voltage delta.

Are there any other tests I can perform or ways that I can help gather data
to get the longer tests supported?






I borrowed a 60W light bulb (instead of one of the new weird ones that
stores are now selling to drive people to just try an LED light).

For the 1100W/2200 VA 5E model a 60W light registers as a ups.load of ~2
(clearly truncated; I guess this correlates to approximately floor((100 *
60)/2200))

It took me a while to remember that I needed to configure upsd.users and
use a completely different command ( upscmd instead of upsc ) to interact
with the UPS and get it to run a battery test.

In my case   upscmd eaton5e test.battery.start.quick   allowed me to see a
maximum default.battery.voltage.high of 26.5

(This typically reads at ~27.50 (27.20 - 27.80) while on line power)

It took me a bit of effort to arrange a larger load that I don't care
about, but after setting it up this weekend I have an initial test load of
'33' (which the light bulb calibration says should be approximately the
same as 16 * (60 watt bulb unit)).

Next the actual battery test

upscmd eaton5e test.battery.start.deep

OK

Though the output appears to indicate that it is not running the test:

OK

I thought that might have worked, but it too still rests on line power.


The test.battery.start.quick command does, BRIEFLY (~1min), put it on to
battery.
