Mercury UPS 1050VA (630W)
Compact line interactive UPS with AVR and intelligent battery management – perfect for protecting PCs, routers, TVs and other sensitive equipment in Nigerian homes and small offices.
Description
The Mercury UPS 1050 is a compact, line interactive UPS designed to keep your critical electronics running smoothly during Nigeria’s frequent power disruptions. Delivering 1050 VA/630 W of power through a simulated sinewave, it features an automatic voltage regulator (AVR) to stabilise high or low mains voltage, protecting your devices and prolonging battery life. The sealed 12V/9Ah battery recharges within six hours to 90 % capacity and, with intelligent battery management and microprocessor control, you can count on dependable operation for years.
Ideal for desktop PCs, modems, routers, TVs, decoders, CCTV systems and POS terminals, the Maverick 1050 provides roughly 15–25 minutes of backup on a typical 200–300 W load. Audible alarms and LED indicators keep you informed of line mode, battery mode and fault conditions, while features such as off‑mode charging, no‑load shut down, self‑diagnostics and auto reset on AC recovery ensure hassle‑free operation. A universal output socket and built‑in fuse offer additional convenience and safety.

FAQs about Mercury Maverick 1050 UPS
Is the Maverick 1050 a true sinewave UPS?
No. It delivers a simulated sinewave output, which is suitable for most PCs, modems, routers and TVs. For sensitive medical or audio equipment, consider a pure sinewave UPS.
How long will it power my computer?
Backup time depends on load. Expect roughly 15–25 minutes for a typical desktop PC and monitor or about 30+ minutes for a small router/modem setup.
Will it work with my generator?
Yes. The UPS is designed to be compatible with generator sets and will switch seamlessly between generator, mains and battery power.
What maintenance does it require?
The sealed battery is maintenance‑free, but we recommend periodic battery health checks and replacing the battery every 2–3 years depending on use.
Can I connect multiple devices?
Yes. The Maverick 1050 has one universal socket. You can attach a surge‑protected extension strip to connect multiple low‑power devices, as long as total load remains within 630 W.
Buying Guide: Is 1050 VA right for me?
- Your goal: Protect computers, networking gear and entertainment systems from outages, voltage swings and surges.
- Your pattern: Frequent short outages in Lagos and other Nigerian cities; occasional longer disruptions.
- Best match: 1050 VA is ideal for one PC setup or multiple low‑power devices. For larger workstations or longer runtime, consider the 1500 VA range or an inverter system.
