I have 3 vapor cooling units in my home, and until yesterday everything seemed fine. I have a mach I with the R404 gas exchange, and mach II with R507 gas exchange, and a new vapochill LS with R507 (comes with R507 stock)....also in my computer room is 6 other computers, well Its getting hot here in Southern California, and my power went out ONLY to that room, yesterday while I had 5 of the 9 computers on. I usually run all 9 of the computers at the same time for extended hours, so I can't figure out why the power to the room would go out yesterday, the only thing I can think of, which leads to my question is...
Do the Mach I, mach II, and Vapochill LS, start to draw more power in order to cool the CPU more? Since the room was nearing 80 degrees ( WITH AC on in my home!! AC set to 70f), the units were getting pretty warm, Im thinking that in order to counter this, they start to draw more power in order to consume the heatload put off from the CPU. Does this sound correct?
I figured that this would be the best place to find that out. Thanks for any help. Also anyone have a recommendation as what to do about the power situation? Ive had electricians come to my home just to upgrade the wires in this room and to provide a more stable current. I have 3 UPC backup systems, and 6 surge protectors, and not the chessy kind either, i paid about 150 per surge protector. Luckily, though some of the computers were on , nothing was damaged.
