Ok Alvin, I await those load results very keenly and we maybe on the biggest break-through for the kenyan economy on power issues and ICT infrastructure, much thanks to your efforts. We may even call it "Alvin Power Factor". I'm not going to doubt what you say, let the tests speak for themselves.
Here is a test scenario, if it helps:
Connect the AC Wattage meter on the AC side and connect the DC Amps meter on the battery side
- Please note the Bootup and surge consumption on both meters in Watts & Amps.
- Please note the power consumption when server is powered and running while has no OS installed
- Please note the power consumption when the server is running applications
- Please note the power consumption when the server has an installed OS but little or no traffic to it.
Hope this is not too much to ask.
Asante and have a good day. :-)

Aki,
Same here...am in UG now but since I will be supplying another IBM
server next week I will have the results for you then.
As for the batteries we all know they are lead acid, what I meant is
that APC batteries are of superior
quality to most other manufacturers that have only a one year or some
even 6 month warranty.
I still insist AKI that the UPS will hold more than that as with other
techies inhouse we have tested it on old HP
Model servers !!!
Will be intouch thou..
