    certaUPS C200 1000va UPS won't run on batteries

    I have come into possession of 2 certaUPS C200's and one works flawlessly but with slightly shorter battery life which will get sorted at some point but the other one turns on fine with mains power but lasts only a couple of seconds once the power is turned off even with no load connected, I have swapped over the batteries between the units which makes no difference to either unit so I'm happily that both battery sets are equally fine, inspecting the PCB of the defective unit I see no heat spots, bulging caps, cracked chips, blown fuses etc but what it does have is what I believe to be a failed crystal resonator with SJK 4.9152 stamped on the top. Before I delve into sourcing a replacement and soldering it onto the board is there anything I need to check that would have caused this failure or am I good to swap it out?

    any and all help very welcome.

    Measure it with an oscilloscope and see if itโ€™s working. Never seen any crystal like that. Makes me wonder if it is a solder blob.

        just to update we got this on his scope and it checked out ok, putting it back on with the excess solder removed and it works fine now so was probably just the solder blob causing issues.

          If the blob grounded out the crystal it sure would have issues. At least it works again!

            Cyberpower cps1500avr not charging batteries
            by carrzkiss
            Hello, all.

            Cyberpower Battery Backup Unit.

            I bought two new ML18-12 batteries through Amazon (They have already refunded my money for the two batteries as we thought the batteries might have been bad.)
            When I got them in, they were not fully charged. I connected them to the UPS and waited 24 hours before connecting any networking equipment.
            In parallel, they read 24v, but within 24 hours, the meter on the front of the unit dropped from 4 to 3 bars on the battery charge indicator.
            Checking the voltage, it was down to 22v.
            I quickly removed everything...

            Where do repair shops buy MB replacement batteries?
            by howardc64
            Order my parts from mobilesentrix.com and iPhone batteries have been excellent. Recently got 3x bad A1534 (2015) batteries. All would work until ~30-40+% and drop to < 10% instantly. Typical sign of cheap batteries.

            Perhaps the less popular A1534 model's aftermarket batteries are more source limited. Just find it surprising quality from mobilesentrix (usually fairly high quality aftermarket parts) have been so poor.

            BTW, this isn't the only defective parts I've had from mobilesentrix. Amongst others including iPad Air touch screen and A1989 touch bar (display was...

            Fixing the Charge Circuit of the Batteries of the DC Motor
            by Astonished
            Hi friends of electronics

            What you see in the video and pictures attached is the circuit for charging the batteries of a DC motor.

            The problem is that this circuit cannot charge the batteries (3 1800mAH NiMH batteries) any more. When the circuit was OK, its green LEDs lit up one at a time to show that the batteries have charged more. But now that the circuit is flawed, LEDs light up as you see in the video and at the same time successive beeps are heard.

            Please help me fix this circuit.
