Tungsten bulbs have a 15x inrush current compared to hot current.   Nichrome is 
much less inrush.

Re: [AFMUG] Need a 200-400 watt load

2021-01-07 Thread Chris Fabien 
I killed a Tripp-Lite UPS once using a 750 watt space heater to try to
load test. Their excuse was spike of inrush as heater element heated
up. Sounded like BS to me and they did RMA it but anyway if you use
light bulbs I'd plug them in one at a time to avoid a similar
situation.

  After a good trudge through the snow to get to the radio shack it can also

  Safer if you take pants off.  Preferably you're on a solo mission if you're

After a good trudge through the snow to get to the radio shack it can also dry 
off your pants really well.

Safer if you take pants off.  Preferably you're on a solo mission if you're 
doing that.

Re: [AFMUG] Need a 200-400 watt load

2021-01-07 Thread Adam Moffett 

I've used a heat gun with a "low" setting.

Hair dryer might be about the same.

If memory serves, back in 2015 I used a couple CRT monitors.  Those 
are long gone.  The only idea I have is a space heater, but that's 
850-900 watts and will probably be too much.


Short of carrying up 20 Ubiquiti AP/POE and some surge strips, anyone 
have any clever ideas?  I have to carry this up 5 flights of stairs so 
please be gentle :)

I have used a good warming tray.  They are pretty light.  Small electric 
skillet.  Heat gun. Blow drier.

Options I've used are
1) 3-4x "round ceiling" type lighbulb holders wirth 100W bulbs mounted on a
piece of wood, using PC power cords with the ends cut off to make them
plug-in. Inexpensive and load is customizable by choosing how many to plug
in. Just need to be careful of storage as the bulbs are delicate.
2) heater with a low-heat mode that takes about 300-400W.

[AFMUG] Need a 200-400 watt load

2021-01-07 Thread Josh Luthman 
My UPS needs to be at 30% load to get a runtime load test.  I'm at 11% (of
750va) with the BH and AP up there.

If memory serves, back in 2015 I used a couple CRT monitors.  Those are
long gone.  The only idea I have is a space heater, but that's 850-900
watts and will probably be too much.

Short of carrying up 20 Ubiquiti AP/POE and some surge strips, anyone have
any clever ideas?  I have to carry this up 5 flights of stairs so please be
gentle :)
