I bought a APC BR1000-IN 13 months ago its been replaced 3 times till now .The last replacement was done just 2 months ago.Now the UPS says it has developed some internal fault so i shut down the PC removed the plug etc
even charged it for 8 hrs then in plugged it in.The fault message has disappeared but after just a couple of mins. in battery mode it crashes my PC even the UPS goes BLANK(no lights).When i restart the PC powerchute says 28mins of backup is their i confirmed the backup time by switching the mains off for a few seconds even then it shows the same 28mins.Every now and then when i switch on the UPS it goes into overload but if i switch off the ups and power it back again the overload warning vanishes:S.
I booked a complaint on 5th the guys called me today morning and said
they are bringing the replacement again.But i have to admit APC rocks in after sales service my house is over 100kms from chennai they are bringing the ups all this way on a bike:hap2:.
Why is this happening again and again i called the electrician and checked everything its all good.Is that particular model defective(i think they have stopped this model):huh:
