APC UPS BX1100LI-MS & Seasonic M12II 620w

  • Recently purchased an APC UPS. Worked as intended since it was able to supply power for 3 power interruptions. Then 4th interruption the UPS just didn't work and everything turned off. There was a constant tone occurring as well. Tested it with power source and will only supply a constant beep. It's pretty much dead I guess.

    Anyone experienced this behavior together with a Seasonic PSU? Read somewhere about having pure sine wave UPS for true rated PSU.
  • ^May breaker yan sa likod ata try to press kasi baka nag trip. If issue persists, tanggal battery connector sa likod rin ata, then reconnect. Sa tingin ko baka di nya kaya yun load.
  • nagawa ko na po yan pero ganun parin. charged it and walang naka plug na gamit pero pag on constant beep parin
  • ^Baka sira na board sa loob. Pag bago yan, 1 yr warranty ata. Check mo na lang sa local APC site.
  • Pero related ba sa seasonic psu ko dahil nasira or malas lng talaga?
  • baka lemon unit lang yang UPS mo, or its possible that the battery installed on that unit is dead (dahil narin sa tagal naka stock yan sa store mismo) since battery have some sort of expiration date (less than a year) kaya importante sa UPS malaman mo agad yung manufaturing date nya, pag more than 1 year na yan, baka degraded state na battery nyan.
  • Theyll have replacement soon and worried ako na baka mangyari nanaman yun. Though I just found out na di ata brandnew binigay sakin and more of like refurbished kasi when I removed the battery connector may dent na kung san mo ipry yung connector. I just need some sort of security from other users if this model has been doing them good service talaga.
  • I agree with Polka, well known and reputable brand yan APC kaya rare mangyari yan. Kung may incompatibilities man, yung PSU mauuna bibigay hindi yung UPS, in my experience :D My first unit lasted a little more than 6 years bago namatay yung battery (beeps permanently), 2nd one is 3 yrs+ na with no problems. Tsaka may settings yan sa manual kung hindi masyado mataas yung load ng UPS, mag off automatically after 15 mins afaik. Disable ko yun para naka on lagi yung router na nakasaksak or kung gusto ko mag recharge ng mobile devices lol
  • thanks sa insight. Will give it another shot then and hopefully di na pumalya. waiting nlng ako sa replacement.
  • Update:

    Finally, my replacement unit arrived. Didn't spend any with the warranty. But upon checking the unit, it's lacking a power cable. So disappointed right now. I'm losing confidence with this brand
