Wow, that is a great idea! I would not have thought of a claning person plugging into a UPS. But with the initial load when lighting up a vacuum cleaner I can see how a UPS could shut down with an overload condition, especially if it has an older battery that has no reserve capacity. Thanks for the tip, Michael!
