..::LumInviCumUps..:: (Inverter Built in UPS)

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 it’s a Luminous Inverter Cum UPS.I bought it around 3 months ago and am fully satisfied with it’s Quality & Service.


(At first was thinking to buy an Su-Kam Inverter.)


Available Colours---:




  1. Silver & Blue




  2. 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 act’s 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 towards’Unregulated 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 start’s, 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 it’s 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, it’s 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. That’s all.


Nowdays, the dealers are giving the trolley in which the battery is kept for free.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Due to the trolley:


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------




  1. 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
