I've just installed a brand new 12 volt 8Ah battery into a Mecer UPS.

Battery is at a full 13v. Charged by the UPS itself.

I plugged a cell phone in to charge and the unit switched off after 5 minutes.
Added some LED lights .... same thing.

Then I tried a 60 watt incandescent globe. Same thing.

Is the load to low ... which causes it to switch off after 5 minutes. Like clockwork.

The sticker on the back says up to 360 watts.

Just want to confirm .. before I add another 60 watt globe.
