Hi all,

Thanks for the suggestions on and off list - I've had a couple of mails saying "speak to Nick at Comtec" and an offer of a visit. What more can you ask for? :)

It isn't sadly just a battery issue - we've done a lot of checking and swapping as that was our first thought; and it does log error messages in a helpful "Internal problem" kind of a way that doesn't aid troubleshooting much.

Paul.

    Hi all,

    A bit of a long shot, but...

    We have a 40KVA APC Symmetra here at our office which hasn't been
    working properly for a while, and it has finally decided that enough
    is enough and it doesn't want to work at all.  A UPS that drops the
    load as soon as the mains power fails is of limited use to anyone.

    We don't have a service contract on it or anything like that.

    Can anyone recommend someone to come out and take a look before we
    consign it to the scrapheap?  We've found a couple of places that
    are full APC dealers but got the distinct impression that they would
    have a look, charge for a callout and then declare it a write off
    and simply try and sell us a new one (and their repair callout
    charges are around £900 as well).  I don't mind if it really is dead
    but would rather have an honest opinion from someone rather than
    just being seen as a sales opportunity.

    We're based in Sussex, near Gatwick - so I'm guessing someone based
    in London or the home counties would be ideal.

    Thanks

    Paul.
