My friend also told me that you should never tax a = battery back-up system more then 80% so for my 2 Amayas and computer I = am getting the APC - 1500va battery back-up system from Best Buy which = is good for 865 watts and should be able to add another Amaya to it if I = needed to. I hope I didn't confuse anyone. If anyone has any questions, = if I don't have the answers I will get them. Russell Silva R. S. Embroidery 508-222-4433
