I tried a few high wattage things in it like a hair dryer, Iron, coffee maker, just to see how long I could use it. These are things I could never think of using in a standard 1500VA UPS, (Which I have for comp and such) All of the devices ran well, the hair dryer probably sucked it down the fastest, (Set high 1500watts), lasted aout 7 minutes before the warning started going off. The unit ran about 5 more minutes on medium setting before the battery dropped to 20 percent. The battery did recover to 50% after turning off dryer, so high wattage appliances I think are a bit much for the batteries to output continuously.The unit is heavy, about 60 pounds. For the money, I would buy again. I figure I should get about 6 hours on a computer with a flat panel attached. For most short power outages, this will get you by for a few necessities. Anything longer you will have to go generator...

Apparently there's at least one bad cell; a 600w load exhausts the batteries in about 45 seconds. So I revise my rating to ``piece of junk,'' niche or no niche. It needs a much better quality control on the batteries.ORIGINAL Post: Pros : about three times the run times of a comparable capacity UPS, based on battery capacity (3 x 17AH, vs typical 2 x 9AH in a 1500VA UPS). Maybe nice to have around to switch to when a regular UPS runs down in a long power outage. I got mine for $180, which would be a good deal in the UPS market. The current $380 would be too high for me. Cons : a lot of cons. It's hyped as if it's going to help out in the gas generator alternative market, but has nowhere near the capacity you'd need in terms or runtimes. It could run a sump pump for an hour maybe (one cycle of my 1/2hp sump pump runs it down to 80% of charge, so 5 cycles would...

I bought it as a Duracell branded Powersource 1800, and there has been no failures with the unit for two years... until now. It was a great unit, but a transformer failed, and now the whole unit is non-repairable. The batteries are fine, but the transformer design is specific to the unit, and Xantrex will not repair it. They will give you a new unit at a substantial discount. However, for my application, it really worked reliably for two years. Application: The unit powers an M-53 Zoeller cast iron 1/3 HP submersible sump pump, which is used as a secondary back-up pump to the primary M-53 Zoeller pump. I It pumps water through a vertical pipe 10 feet upward and 6 feet horizontally out of the house to an exterior drain pipe, at 2100 Gal/hour - 35 Gal/min. I have two units for two houses... both perform... Read more |
