I am now having to consider what I will do to replace both units as both are exposed to high dew almost constantly. I looked into getting a 1000watt inverter with 150 deep cycle batter and a charger. Not cheap either but not going to break down because of dew either. Something to consider.
Hi Paul,

Interesting. Perhaps in my situation I haven't come across such a problem because my UPS's sit in the inside half of my observatory which is relatively dry, clean and dust free. The new ones will sit in there also, so I think I should be OK. Worth considering.

Regards,
Roger.
