Lets see when you , my brother, realize it was APC fault all along. Hope it isn't.
I have AGS battery 175 amp
Local good UPS from a friend of mine in Lahore.
Its been two years almost end of 2nd year. Battery still gives 8 hour on one ceiling fan and two or more savers. And 2-3 hours on 3-4 ceiling fans.
After i have been putting wrong water when needed. Distilled AC water was wrong. Told by my friend. And battery NEVER OVERCHARGES. means UPS is fine.
Now we have two hour load shedding and one hour electricity. So i switched the UPS to fast but safe charging. Charging mode. Now UPS is charging at 34 amps first and charges slower as te battery fills. Beause no foreign or local UPS cheaply built can handle two hours of load shedding by charging one hour each.
Apc charge is set for dry battery charging.
In 2 years , i had to refill only 4-6 times. And fully replace the water on one occasion. When AC distilled water gave 0 gravity and battery was
Giving two hours backup only.
So my friend. Before u even kill ur batteries. Worry about UPS as well.
Lemme know if u need help regarding that UPS. OTHERWISE. may Allah put blessing in ur APC. AND BATTERIES.
