Hi
Compaq UPSs are NOT based on APC UPSs.  It is a myth they are (or were)
mad=
e by or based on APC UPSs.
They are made by one of Powerware's factories.  (there were a lot of take
o=
vers.... Deltec, Fiskars, Exide, Powerware, Invensys, Eaton)
The R3000h will probably have Deltec and/or Exide Electronics on it.
