Hi,
I need to order a UPS for my computer system so I connected an amp
meter and under the worst load conditions it was drawing about 4.2A
for everything. I figured 4.2 x 120 = 504 so I need a 500 Watt unit.
I started looking and I find things like...
Battery load capacity: 500VA (300 Watts)
How is VA different from Watts?? I thought VA meant V x A.
Thanks for any clarification.
