Backup UPS connected and 92% charged

Anonymous user · ‎2021-06-28

I bought a 950VA Back-UPS a few weeks ago.
It is correctly connected to the mains, there have been no voltage blocks.
There are 5 PCs connected, a switch and a router.
A power of about 230W is provided.

Yet in Powerchute Personal Edition (v. 3.1.0) I am given a 97% charge, in charge.
If I connect Powerchute Business Edition instead, I am even given a charge of 9.2%.
Why is not 100%?

If it is useful information, the firmware is 925.T2.I

Hi,

The unit should charge to 100%. If it is not you should contact local support as the UPS may need to be replaced.
