do i need an APC UPS?

If you purchase this laptop, I don't think you will require another battery. It comes with the battery, but no MicroSoft Windows.

When I purchased my laptop I did not need to buy anything else for it to run. I did have to contact my cable provider to connect to the internet. That is some kind of battery you are asking about and I definitely did not need one. Another good thing to do is contact the seller, they will know for sure.

Not required, even if hooked up to a generator instead of city/county power. My refrigerator and freezer work fine as well as some battery chargers I had running off the dirty output of a poorly regulating generator but the UPS kept flickering on and off so I had to unplug it.

Your question would indicate that you want a UPS, and uninterrupted power supply; no it doesn't do that but it does prevent damage from power surges. Brown out protection requires a UPS.

I used this battery for APC UPS not for PA System.. maybe it will work also. I am not sure ....

It does not need additional supply, however, I would buy cheap UPS (from Costco) so that it can stay up for for few minutes.I would check the Amp requirement on your circuit as they do consume a bit more power.I am running 4 of them at my shop.Thanks

I have has this unit for about 3 years...protecting my computers, etc. I has shut down during a surge. No equipment has been damaged as a result of having this APC unit in place.

Sorry, I don't know. I purchased these batteries to replace in an APC brand UPS. But, the batteries I purchased are used a lot in different brand UPS! Make sure your amp hour rate is equal to what you replace with!

I installed a small UPS like you would use for a computer. Gives me about 90 minutes of full load run time. When in standby, it uses little or no energy, so it will get me through most short outages where it's not worth the effort of hooking up the generator.

No I don't believe it will because a UPS is DC power inverted to AC, therefore the AC signal from the panel transmitter will be blocked. On second thought if you lose power from the utility company, then the TED transmitter in your electrical panel won't have any power so it can't function anyway, so it wouldn't matter if a ups would or would not work . You won't lose any data in your display unit, as soon as power is restored, it will start functioning again as if nothing happened.

No. Unit receives its signal from current samplers via power circuit so putting UPS in line will disrupt data.

You can't go wrong with the sine wave feature of the PFC, as it will keep all battery backed up devices running in a power failure. With the AVR model, you are taking a chance on devices with an active power supply of shutting down in a power failure, defeating the purpose of the UPS. Active power supplies are becoming more and more common on high end electronics and PCs. While you might not need a sine wave UPS for the equipment you have now, you might need it after you buy a new smart TV, a new home theater PC, or a new game console, etc.

It can but it is not the best device. A UPS with surge protector is a better option.

I doubt it. Its designed to connect the APC uniterrupted powersuppy to a NAS or a desktop in order to check the battery status and in case of powerfailure turn the devise off before the batteries run out.

Excuse me? Even in your complaint, it's listed as an External Battery Pack for 1500VA Back-UPS. The photo of it shows no outlets that would be necessary for a UPS unit. Amazon does carry the UPS. I purchased one in September 2011 & they are still selling them.The VA rating gives you the amount of power that the UPS can provide when the power goes out, but in and of ittself doesn't say how long it will provide that power. The external battery pack increases that time substantially.

It is generally not recommended plugging in an additional power strip to any of these UPS backups. In fact, I think some warranties are voided if you do and then have problems.

I can't speak to the specific model you mention, but I can tell you that I've owned at least 4 previous UPS's, all from APC. Much happier with this one and would not recommend an APC over the cyberpower.

Hello Kim, we use UPS to process our shipments. Unfortunately, they not deliver to APO or P.O. Boxes.
