<X> I don't understand how you can get so much extra time out of a 1500VA UPS verses a 1350VA UPS. I have to admit I was highly distracted by my classmate during physics 3 so I didn't really pay attention, but the ratio at like 50W seems to be more like 2:3 when I think it'd be closer to 9:10? (Which is the ratio of 1350 to 1500) https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/dGB62vji/image.png

<whitequark> ⟨X⟩ I don't understand how you can... ⮪ probably "nominal capacity" and not "real capacity"
<whitequark> like how 1/2 inch pipe doesn't have a single dimension that is 1/2 inch
<X> But they have like 1000VA and all these other sizes....liiike it shouldn't be that nominal
<whitequark> i don't have a better answer
<SnoopJ> in theory, theory and practice are the same thing
<raptop> in theory, theory and practice are different. in practice, you can get close with a fairly simple model and your hand tuned correction factors don't matter *that* much
<raptop> not sure I actually believe that, but some days...
