Only 2.8mins left? The UPS unit, fairly common I suspect, is a Back-UPS ES 350
and less than a year old. It only saw service once last year during an electric
storm when the house power failed for a few minutes. Why isn't it charging. Or
is it? It says BATTDATE 2000-00-00. Huh?
I'd like to test it further but the apcupsd manual recommends at least 5mins
time left. If I just unplug it from the back of the PC, will it charge? Is the
battery caput?
