how long will it run? different units give different answers
With my almost new ES 750-- I have it connected to my Dell 9200 and my Dell 26" flatscreen.
PowerChute 3.0.2's "current status" says the load on the UPS is only 130 watts out of a possible 450. But, then at the bottom, it says "estimated battery time" is only 14 minutes.
My much older UPS (an ES 725) would tell me I had 50 minutes or so.
