1 00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:13,759 all right so you guys have been raging at me about all the networking especially Powerline networking topics 2 00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:18,439 that we've been doing so we're taking a break and we're going to be doing a 3 00:00:15,599 --> 00:00:24,439 fiesta of uninterruptible power supplies so today we have an APC unit APC is one 4 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:28,080 of the better known brands for upses are uninterruptible power supplies they've 5 00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:32,160 got a lot of information on their box here so we're going to go ahead and 6 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:38,200 break the seals and then see what APC has to say about themselves for this 7 00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:41,160 particular power saving battery backup 8 00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:45,719 here we go so first of all it is 1,000 volt amp so that is up to 600 watts of 9 00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:49,440 power that can be driven off of the battery of this unit with up to 121 10 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:53,359 minutes of runtime I guarantee you that is not with 600 watts but that is more 11 00:00:51,199 --> 00:00:57,600 of a maximum eight Outlets with a three-year warranty as well as AVR 12 00:00:55,559 --> 00:01:02,640 technology this prevents damage and loss of computers and peripherals internet 13 00:01:00,239 --> 00:01:06,880 modems and wireless routers okay sure why not photo music and video libraries 14 00:01:05,159 --> 00:01:11,720 yeah if you you know plug in your um your video library Appliance to it 15 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:17,119 external storage uh you can also save up to $45 see the back panel for details 16 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:23,200 interesting annual Energy savings okay how much run time aha here we go uh so 17 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:28,600 18 minutes with a graphics workstation approximately 240 WTS you know PC LCD 18 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:31,600 monitor speakers Etc I would say that's pretty conservative I I can can 19 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:36,360 definitely build a computer that can uh suck more than 240 Watts from it but 20 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:40,840 we'll we'll get to that when we do look at that though 40 Watts 40 watts is 21 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:46,320 their 121 minute quote interesting what do we got back 22 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:51,560 here oh wow best-in-class APC Peace of Mind covers your entire back ups for 23 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:55,680 three years and offers $150,000 lifetime equipment protection policy cool gigabit 24 00:01:54,079 --> 00:02:00,240 Ethernet and coax surge protection good to have four battery backup Outlets with 25 00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:04,240 surge protection as well as I guess four that do not have battery backup yep okay 26 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:09,920 cold start capability allows you to power up the unit for temporary emergency battery power when utility 27 00:02:07,079 --> 00:02:14,440 power is already out cool automatic diagnostic testing okay ensures that 28 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:17,319 your back UPS is ready when you need it push button circuit breaker yep 29 00:02:15,879 --> 00:02:20,440 efficient charging system recharges your back UPS in8 hours and ensures your 30 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:23,840 critical equipment remains available when the power goes out cool easy to 31 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:28,760 read LCD powerwoot personal Edition O 32 00:02:27,239 --> 00:02:32,080 software to help you automatically shut down if the power turns out so you don't 33 00:02:30,239 --> 00:02:35,440 you know lose your work or whatever else building wiring F indicator for surge 34 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:38,879 protection only Outlets automatic voltage regulation corrects incoming 35 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:42,239 utility power without utilizing the battery very good that can help make 36 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:48,400 your equipment um last longer and it's true 37 00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:51,680 because even if you have pretty good power in your house or building or 38 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:56,400 wherever you happen to be got some included accessories here including a 39 00:02:54,120 --> 00:03:00,159 coax cable of all things um even if you have pretty good power 40 00:03:00,879 --> 00:03:07,799 there is still a chance that the slight fluctuations that happen on a daily 41 00:03:04,920 --> 00:03:12,519 basis or even an hourly basis can overtime cause damage to your computer 42 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:18,239 or monitor or whatever else that you have plugged directly into the wall look 43 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:22,959 at that huh cool check this out comes with a little QA test receipt thing 44 00:03:20,959 --> 00:03:27,400 showing that it passed all of the various tests set battery constants 45 00:03:24,879 --> 00:03:30,920 input output phase angle capactive load verification cool overall pass it's 46 00:03:29,519 --> 00:03:39,239 actually signed by some guy whose name is apparently V all right stop halt 47 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:40,879 something connect battery oh okay so if 48 00:03:39,239 --> 00:03:47,080 you don't connect the battery that's that's bad so uh okay how to 49 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:57,239 do okay so the battery is we have to 50 00:03:52,439 --> 00:03:57,239 pull off some kind of hold on a 51 00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:03,000 minute why don't you guys give me a moment 52 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:07,159 yeah so um the reason I couldn't find anything that slid or moved was because 53 00:04:04,959 --> 00:04:11,439 the sticker was obviously covering it the sticker doesn't come off very 54 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:12,760 cleanly which is a minor complaint but 55 00:04:11,439 --> 00:04:17,320 you know you unbox a lot of Hardware you 56 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:21,919 develop a lot of minor complaints uh so basically this part just comes off yeah 57 00:04:20,199 --> 00:04:25,800 whatever it comes off and then what you do to connect the battery is lift and 58 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:25,800 pull the 59 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:33,720 tabs then flip it over 60 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:38,039 man it's heavy lead battery there we go 61 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,880 and 62 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:49,639 sweet there we are okay so let's have a look at the unit itself for optimal 63 00:04:47,759 --> 00:04:53,320 power saving settings and recommended outlet configuration see the manual okay 64 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:56,639 good to know and then other than that we've got a speaker button on the front 65 00:04:55,360 --> 00:05:04,039 so I'm guessing that's to silence the alarm power as well as um like a menu 66 00:04:59,960 --> 00:05:04,039 looking sort of button on the back we 67 00:05:04,479 --> 00:05:11,800 find Ethernet cable USB and Cal oh okay 68 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:14,120 I guess it comes with like an adapter or 69 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:20,319 something yep neat building wiring fault 70 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:24,720 as well as surge protection only and battery backup as well as circuit 71 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:28,919 breaker push to reset so I'm guessing this is controlled by software in here 72 00:05:27,319 --> 00:05:32,360 so that's kind of neat and then you got like a nice beefy cord coming off of it 73 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:37,360 so thank you for checking out my unboxing of and I never actually said 74 00:05:34,319 --> 00:05:41,319 the model of this thing did I terrible 75 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:43,280 this is the APC back UPS Pro 1000 and 76 00:05:41,319 --> 00:05:49,240 don't forget to subscribe Fus Tech tips for more unboxings of power UPS's
