Re: Does price matter anymore?

Only one problem with that idea....... every APC UPS I've seen must be
connected to a 120V source to start up - you can't start them from the 12V
battery alone. So unless you have a normal inverter to start it with, it's
pretty much useless in a power outage.


Are you sure?

I have several APC UPS models which can be started from cold using the
internal battery. The models are BE500R, BK250 and BK380.

In the other hand, I have a TrippLite UPS model BC250 which cannot be
started from the battery. It should be connected to a 120VAC source
prior to startup.
