Question:   what are the main differences between the S-Series and the H-Series?
Answer:   Fundamentally, the difference between the S Types and H Types is that the S has a battery and the H does not (other than the looks of the units).
So anyone with a DLP display, automation system, lighting system or media servers, should be using the S because those are the applications which really require a battery.
 
Question:   When the S10 or S15 go to battery mode, can the system email the owner?
Answer:   No. At this time it does not have that capability.
 
Question:   On the H10, there is a measurement for "Let Through Voltage Rating < 40". Is that Voltage? It seems awfully low to only let 40V pass when most equipment needs 110-120V.
Answer:   "Let-Through Voltage" is a surge protection rating. So, of course we let through 120 normally, but if you have a spike (at approximately 6,000 volts and 2,000 amps) we will only "let through" an additional 40 volts or so, so 160v in those cases. This rating is a UL safety rating and is a much better gauge than a Joules rating which is typically used in the AV world.
 
Question:   What is the Voltage Regulation for the H-Series?
Answer:   The units can operate on transformer in the 90v-140v range while still providing the appropriate 115v-120v to your gear down stream.
 
Question:   What To Do When Your Smart-UPS Says "Replace Battery"?
Answer:   http://nam-en.apc.com/cgi-bin/nam_en.cfg/php/.....
 
Question:   Why doesn't my UPS work? I just bought it.
Answer:   All UPS systems are shipped with the battery disconnected. You will have to connect the battery first for it to work properly
 
Question:   Can we air ship your product, is there an issues with batteries?
Answer:   No issues with air shipping the product. The battery ships disconnected, which allows is to do this.
