hello guys.
I would like to know whether my UPS draws as much current(when computer
is in standy mode) as it does when the computer is working full power?
The UPS is a 600VA thing, PC is an AMD Athlon 2400+.
Thanks

It uses a little power to keep it's battery charged, how much depends on make/model/battery size, etc,etc,.
Look in the manual or elec. specs.
