To all,
There seems to be questions from time to time on battery backup supplies so I
did some testing. I have an APC 500, which I think I purchased for about $70,
for my single Amaya and computer that runs it. I tested with a 4700 stitch
design. As soon as the design started I pulled the main plug. Everything ran
normal for thirty seconds then the computer auto shut down. The Amaya kept
running and finished the design which took five minutes. I finally shut the
machine off at the six minute mark. At this time I don't know how much longer
the machine would have sewn, but I do know it will sew at least six minutes off
my battery.
After I recharged the battery I turned on only the computer and pulled the UPS
plug. The computer ran for three minutes and fifteen seconds then auto shut
down.
Moral of the story: the computer requires allot more power than the Amaya.
I hope this information is of some use to those with questions. I know it
answered some of mine.
