    Help with my VIP722 - is it dead?

    Yup, TV was on and connected to the power strip I was using. I tested it on another outlet that I had just used to grind my coffee. So, I know both power sources work.

    HELP! MY VIP622 Died!

    Last night, we were watching TV when it went blank and the UPS started making a constant beeping sound. The VIP612 had turned off. I truned off the UPS (batteries indicated they were low), disconnected the VIP622 and the TV and turned the UPS back on. No more beeping but batteries were still...
