Forever charging APC Backup batt

[BillP]

hi,

im using APC 1100va backup battery to backup my modem, cctv & alarm.

im plugging in the APC Backup battery to direct wall socket & my modem, cctv & alarm all plugged into the APC backup.

i wanna ask can i leave my apc backup battery plugging to my wall socket 24/7 with the switch on.

I've been charging it now & it feels "slight warm". Can it be used 24/7, keep charging onto the wall socket to keep supply electric to my cctv/alarm.

thanks,

Hi Jayden,

You can keep the UPS connected to the wall outlet. Plugging it into wall socket 24/7 will not impact the ups. You just need to make sure there is proper ventilation for the air circulation this will keep the ups away from becoming warm.
