Stock voltage range for AVR is 88-144 volts. In the video the voltage range is different because you can adjust the range as low as 78 volts or as high as 150 volts.
@shyb3rt Жыл бұрын
I have this same on a cyberpower CP1000PFCLCD I bought, and I'm puzzled by this because the voltage here usually is "suppose" to be 127-128V for the single phase mains, but it will usually hover in the 131-135V range and some times also push up in the 139V... When it triggers above the 136V limit I set it will trigger the battery and run out of power even though the mains power remains at 137-139V for hours.. In the Power Panel software (CyberPower) it will show the events as how many times the battery has been triggered, but for the AVR it shows as never triggered.. So my experience is that when the input is 127-136V it will just output the same 127-136V, and then when triggering the battery it goes to 120V output. But that makes no sense - what is the functionality of the AVR if it never triggers in the range and just outputs the same voltage as the mains until the limit is triggered and then switches to battery ?

@@SystematicHardware Thank you for the reply. Yes I don't understand this. for me, on the CyberPower, when it exceeds the range the battery will kick in and supply 120V for as long as it can last - but the AVR doesn't seem to do anything. I would think the AVR would act within the e.g. 88-136V range to regulate it to 120V, but that's not the case in my experience at least. Given I didn't have brownouts in the last week, so didn't see how it will respond with low voltage, but it did nothing to regulate down the high voltage before it passed the 136V (or whichever voltage you set), but then on battery. Most electrical equipment is rated e.g. 120V +-5% or 10%. With 137V you're passing 14% and even worse for low voltage of 88V you are down to 73% of nominal mains power.. Doesn't sound good for any electrical equipment.

@@shyb3rt I used a digital voltmeter and noticed once that the AVR symbol was on in the front LED display. For me I could see how the voltage going in was low, yet the voltage going out was a nominal 120v on the voltmeter. For me i've seen it work, but it was only once out of the two units I have, since i've had them. It was during a summer heat wave where I was running an AC unit on the same circuit as my two gaming machines.

@@SystematicHardware Interesting. Yes this is how I would expect the AVR to work, that within the given limits before going over to battery, that is would work to stabilize the voltage output. But for my CyberPower unit, at least when receiving too high voltage, it would not intervene until it was triggered to go over to battery. So the promoted AVR has now value, which is really weird.

I've had this for a few years now. The coaxial through the grounds screws in my experience almost halfs the bandwidth coming from the wall I have been told because those are already grounded outside where they were installed to the side of the house. I do use the ethernet ports to ground the modem to the computer itself tho. for some reason that doesn't effect bandwidth speed at all. From what I found those ports are actually for a fax machine. I think the company themselves say it works for whatever but are intended to ground a fax machine/printer. So, it grounds a computer to a printer. Instead of grounding a computer from the wall. The only thing your suppose to actually ground to the wall is that little screw that can be wired to the screw on the outlet itself.

I got the same thing except mine doesn't say "PRO" and it will randomly die on me while it's IDLE (thankfully). So no power out from it, won't turn back on, nothing happens until I disconnect the battery and reconnect it, which is a bit of a pain since I generally need to unplug everything and move it to do that! I called Tech support and they were quick to blame my usage on it saying my computer is using too much power etc.... it happened 3-4x now when only a few watts of power being drawn form it. So that's nonsense. Not happy with APC support. Luckily I got it from Costco so I can just return it or replace it (but hopefully the model doesn't suffer from this issue and I just end up with it again). Previously using the same equipment I had the APC 1000 model and it never died on me until the battery died maybe after 6 or 7 years of use! So my question is, if you've bene using this for a while now do you have the same issue where it just dies for no reason?
