Well well well, I am back on MS to write a review & take a guess on which product is it. oooooooffffffff............::Cant guess, never mind you will come to know automatically as u go on to read the revu.
The product is .........is...LumInviCumUps.
.................:Still u cant figure out what it is???Very Very bad:.................
Hey friends its a Luminous Inverter Cum UPS.I bought it around 3 months ago and am fully satisfied with its Quality & Service.
(At first was thinking to buy an Su-Kam Inverter.)
Available Colours---:
Silver & Blue
Pearl White
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, Firstly let me tell you what is an inverter cum Ups---: ???
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
An LumInviCumUPS is a machine which provides electricity to the Computer/Home during power failure or low-voltage so that you can continue the work you were doing before.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It acts as an UPS---: Kaise???
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was only possible through Micro controller digital technology.Through this technology various equipments like Tube lights, Fans & Computer can run altogether which eliminates the need of two equipments for similar applications.
Source of the information-: General Knowledge..
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How does it work out??
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Behind the inverter a switch is placed & with 2 Functions assigned to it.
Namely..
...
....
Regulated Supply/UPS
Unregulated Supply/UPS
When the switch is towards Regulated UPS during a power failure, the inverter straight away provides electricity to the house and Computer.Thus, no harm is done to your Comp.
But when the switch is towardsUnregulated UPS during a power failure, the inverter waits for 2 minutes and only then it provides electricity to the house.
So if you already have a LumInviCumUPS always keep the switch towards Regulated Ups.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Backup---: (According to my observation)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The backup of the inverter is enough for a medium sized house in India.It can run your Computer (With the ad-ons like printer, scanner e.t.c.), 2 tubelight & 1 fan for around 4.5 hours but In terms of only tubelights & fans, it can help you for approximately 6 hours. The best thing about this inverter is that, it has got Brains.Whenever the load is high, it automatically switches off and after a stop of 5 minutes it again re starts, Thus providing us with electricity.
When compared to Su-Kam/G-Tec Inverters they give only a backup of 4 hours in totality.^
^I can say that because before buying Luminous, my Jiju was using a Su-kam Inverter & requested my father to go for Luminous.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Battery---:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
With the growing popularity of inverters, the developers have started making various types of batteries like- Normal Battery, Tubular Battery, Selenium Battery e.t.c.
In my case I have had very bad experiences with the normal battery.Once it stopped working within 2 days of its purchase.(It was a G-Tec Battery).When called the companies service man, we were told that it will be replaced but will have to pay the half amount.Then we paid the 1/2 amount and got it replaced.But again, you will be shocked to know that the new battery also stopped working.
We then opted for Tubular Battery which was a bit expensive.The cool thing is that, its been 4 years & till now we faced not even a single problem with it.It takes around 2 hr to get fully charged and works much much better than does Pocket Eating Batteries.
Coming to Selenium Batteries, they are only used in high capacity office Inverters.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Service---:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nothing major has to be done during the warranty period.A person from the company will come & do the service.After the warranty period has finished, only water stored in the battery grooves has to replaced by you after every 3 months. Thats all.
Nowdays, the dealers are giving the trolley in which the battery is kept for free.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Due to the trolley:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- We can move the inverter from one place to another with ease as there are wheels fixed under it.(An inverter with the battery weighs-63 kgs)
2.The place where the inverter has been kept looks neat & tidy.
Verdict---:
BUY ONLY LUMINOUS INVERTERS AS THEY CAN BE RELIED UPON.
----------------------Superb Quality and Service----------------------
Note:
In other words inverter basically is an UPS & an UPS is basically an inverter.Both are the same things.So dont get fooled by the sales person.
Wishing you all a very HAPPY & PROSPEROUS new year...........2006
