In an era where power instability threatens data, finances, and productivity, a dependable UPS is essential. The LightWave LW 1000VA 3‑Pin UPS is engineered to deliver robust performance and fast backup power to your PC, networking gear, entertainment systems, or small business equipment. With its balanced power output, surge protection, automatic voltage regulation, and intelligent battery management, it ensures that your devices stay powered—and your data stays safe—even when the grid falters.
Offering 1,000 VA (≈600 W) of backup power, this UPS is suitable for:
Desktop systems with peripherals
Routers, modems, and Wi‑Fi hubs
CCTV/DVR systems
POS equipment and small servers
LED TVs or gaming consoles under 400 W draw
Typical runtime is roughly 5 minutes at full load (600 W) and 15 minutes at half load (300 W)—enough time to finish important work or safely shut down systems
The LightWave LW 1000VA 3‑Pin UPS features line‑interactive design with built-in AVR, which corrects under- and over-voltage without using the battery. This preserves battery life and provides stable output between 170 V and 280 V input range
Upon power loss the LightWave LW 1000VA 3‑Pin UPS switches to battery mode in 2–6 ms, with a maximum of 10 ms—fast enough to prevent abrupt shutdowns in most devices .
Integrated surge suppression shields equipment from voltage spikes, while overcharge, overload, and short-circuit protection safeguard both the LightWave LW 1000VA 3‑Pin UPS and your connected devices
Powered by a sealed 12 V lead-acid battery, this UPS offers:
Automatic self-test to identify battery health
Smart charging to extend battery life
Automatic restart after power restoration
Recharging takes approximately 6–8 hours to full capacity.
Equipped with an LED status panel that shows power mode, battery charge, load level, and fault status alongside audible alarms for battery mode, low battery, and overload, this LightWave LW 1000VA 3‑Pin UPS keeps you informed and prepared .
Single 3‑pin output socket—compatible with Kenyan mains
Compact tower form: ≈330 × 150 × 180 mm, ≈6 kg
Ventilated design fits easily on desktops, shelves, or racks
| Use Case | Device Setup |
|---|---|
| Home office | PC, monitor, router/modem |
| Retail/POS | Cash register, receipt printer, Wi‑Fi |

Green power-saving mode reduces standby power consumption
Microprocessor control enhances precision and dependability
Cold-start support allows the UPS to start from battery alone, ideal for emergency use
This LightWave LW 1000VA 3‑Pin UPS adheres to global standards for safety, performance, and efficiency: including surge protection certification, AC rise/fall regulation, and build-standards compliant with international norms.
Outputs a simulated (stepped) sine wave, suitable for most equipment, though not ideal for high-end audio or sensitive electronics
Includes only one output socket—additional devices require a surge-protected extension lead
Audible alerts are functional but may need softening in quiet environments
