dscheckman;
Another thought, since it is a UPS that has on the back of it connectors that will allow you to connect extra batteries. I would go the route of adding batteries as you have them available.
There is a small dos based program tha you'll need to run meaning you'll also need to connect a computer the the Matrix, but both are easy tasks.
The program, downloadable from APCC.com will tell the internal memory that you have more batteries and to use them, along with the internal ones, as one complete set. The
The connection is merely a null modem cable and the software will also allow you to fine tune it's control which includes output power, alarms system shut down and even how much time you have left on your system before the batteries are depleated.
If they do not have those available , let me know I can dig ours out and zip one to you if necessary.
You will also need to maintain the external voltages as they are inside the unit , which If memory serves me right these are 48V, and you can add tons of external batteries. :-))
Hope this helps!!

Of course this is not the most effecient use, but sure does make sure you have a pure sine-wave!!
