can someone comment on this observation:
I replaced an aging UPS which provides some power backup/surge control for a digital
cable box and television, bought this unit
Model: BR1300LCD (APC BACK-UPS RS 1300VA LCD)
When both the cable box and tv are on, the watts on the LCD display alternates between
a low of 87 watts, up to 107 watts at somewhat random intervals but all within a few
minutes.
what might be the reason the watts "change" by this range of about 20 watts?
I have the unit set on a permanent LCD display turned on so it works similar to my
Kill-A-Watt display, though much nicer
