A friend of mine needs help re-arranging the network at his small business to fit another desk, and this is going to require another UPS to run the networking gear which is going to be separated from the rack his NAS is in

So for $100 shipped I picked up yet another (third one in this network now) used APC rackmount 1500VA UPS

Did a load test to check the state of the batteries. After running a 450W space heater for 15 minutes there was 25% capacity left. This will work fine!

A 2U rackmount APC UPS lying on top of (and crushing) the shipping box it came in, while hooked up to a glowing IR radiant space heater, while a laptop shows the state of charge
