I am sorry if my words were mis-spoken and should have been in Watts
not VA,( =0 sorry i respond to this stuff early in the morning).


No, it does not really matter here - adding extra battery pack does not
increase the UPS maximum load power limits. It does increase "runtime"
(battery discharge time), which is not the same but you seem to mix them
two.



Umm that's what he said.
