UPS status details

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I have a 1 year old MGE Ellipse Max 600 which was working fine.

Today I've noticed some strange reports regarding LOADPCT, BCHARGE and TIMELEFT. They all report zeroes.

Is it a sign that my battery is already dead and need a replacement or is it something related to the plugin itself?

I am using Unraid 5.0 and the unmenu UPS plugin.

Thanks

Agreed. The battery looks very dead from the status report.

Its possible that the UPS circuitry has somehow stopped charging and the battery could hold a charge, but I'd bet that the battery is several years old and no longer chargeable. Try the lamp test. Replacement batteries are much cheaper than a new UPS.
