If you're back on mains power, trusting it to stay available and trying to get your computers back to life while a UPS is recharging, you might temporarily disconnect a data link between UPS and computer? If the laptop battery was in a good state, I'd disconnect totally from the UPS. A laptop should manage to run itself, quite fine, with the mains power coming and going. Mine always did. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.119.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jun 4 14:43:51 UTC 2024 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
