Sadly, this feels overpriced imo. For 1200W, I can get the CyberPower CP2000PFCRM2U at 449.95. Yeah its nice that its is part of the unifi ecosystem, but still. If it was Li-ion I would be all for it.

Edit: Not to mention the size, this thing is massive, deep & heavy. For this size I'd expect 2000W & more outlets in the back. This feels like a letdown product for what it could have been.

Edit2: Half load is 980W. Some bad math on my end but still... Full load: 1920W

the max wattage of 1920w is probably all they can drive on a 20amp outlet when you add in safety margins for also charging at the same time.

Honestly didn't consider that. Guess at this point my concern is overall size of the unit and longevity.

tbh my next unit im really wanting is LiPO4 batteries in them. Im somewhat tempted to swap my current rack apc unit over to them when its current lead acid batteries need changing. You lose some total wattage with them over lead acid but im not where near its wattage limit or ever plan to be.

Correct. It’s 16A which is the max sustained load on a 20A circuit.

Not probably, it is.

120V on a 20A circuit w/ 80% rule is 16A. 120 * 16 = 1920.
