That's precisely the problem. I purchased this larger UPS for the specific purpose of being able to operate this computer in a thunderstorm. Apparently, my expectations were unrealistic.
Are there any devices that operate through a battery............the computer is powered by the battery and there is no requirement to switch to the battery?
The entire concept of "battery backup" appears to be complete BS if the computer reboots prior to the battery taking effect. What would anybody need a battery backup for...........if all their data is now lost??
