how long does the battery give to close and shutdown systems when power is interrupted

This depends on so many things, including how much load the computer/monitors/etc. are taking, and how old the battery is. A nice thing about this model is that it has a digital readout which will tell you how many minutes. Generally, it will be a few minutes only.

It depends on the draw. If it's a computer at rest or hibernating, you might get 30 min. Less power draw, more time. You can set it to shut down the computer at a percentage of remaining battery power. I have mine set to 20% remaining. You have to download software from Tripp Lite to enable this feature, but it protects from hard shutdown. If it's a spike or a short power loss, the computer won't even notice and won't shut down. Great system. I have my satellite box (no reboot) and my phone answering machine plugged in.DO NOT!!! plug in a laser printer!!!

Mine shuts off between 3.5-4 hrs on constant run, about 6ish hrs on intermittent.

It definitely has a timer for shut down after no activity. Not sure the duration though

Yes. The manual calls it "intelligent power off" and it apparently happens after 30 minutes even if you're using it.

Yes. This is usually used for just computers, stereos, or tvs. It protects from surges and conditions the power supply. It also allows you time to save your work and shut down the computer safely. Depending on how many items are plugged into it, it can allow you 10-25 minutes of power.

It will remain in what ever setting at the time you turn it off. For long idle times, you want it to be in the open/wild mode. If you leave it in the closed mode, it will drain your battery.

Not sure about the shutdown, but it will come back on when power is restored (assuming loss of power).

Hi Larseroo . The capacity of the timer to shut off after 4.5 hours of charging time has been integrated to the device itself and the rule cannot be edited.

Not long and it burns out quickly where you have to keep charger connected to computer at all times. Soon as you disconnect it turns off this is the second battery I will have to replace

I am not sure--at least 10 min. I have a lot of stuff plugged into it What I was mostly interested in - is that it will safely shut down my computer when I am not here to turn it off. I have had the APC for a couple of years & it has never failed me. We live in a rural area where we have a lot of power outages.

to be honest i am not sure. you can go on the Tripp Lite site and possibly get the information. i have this product and my computer and screen and my back up drives are hooked into it so if power goes out i can easily finish anything i was working on and also turn the hardware off without any spikes or problems. it is great to have and if the power goes out for a long time i can also turn this device off and then switch it on when the power comes back on. i truly feel secure having this here.

It seems to shut off when full charge is reached, don't know the answer too second question.

That will depend on how many watts the devices on the UPS draw during the power outage. I have two of these devices for two computers. The older computer draws more power so there would be just enough time to save files, and shut the computer down cleanly. My new computer has a light power footprint; it could run about thirty minutes before depleting the UPS power.

There will be a few reasons why your alarm may go off. Upon initial set up the system will test itself and check the battery, During this time you may hear the alarm. If everything checks out okay the alarm will stop and the battery will be on charging until needed. During regular operation you may hear the alarm because the system continues to do checks sporadically, about once a week. During a power outage the alarm will sound informing you that the system is on battery backup power. When the power returns the alarm will shut off. If the system finds any trouble such as the battery dying or the battery depleting itself during a power outage the alarm will go off more rapidly. If you receive a constant alarm that means that there is an issue with the battery, or you have overloaded the system with too many devices, which will not allow the unit to function on battery backup power. I hope you find this your question.

Yah it will shut off of left unattended for long periods. Not sure of the exact cutoff time period

It's just a backup battery if your power goes out, as far as i know its not just for certain versions of windows.

Assume that you won't be plugging off the laptop. It lasts about an hour or two, but basically assume you need a power brick if you're travelling.
