I just got a new APC Back UPS ES 500 and I thought that is might solve the problem by conditioning the current better. Does anyone know the deal is, could the asus probe be wrong? Lets say its right what can I do to remedy the problem? (Note these same reading have been produced at to diffent locations) Thanks for any help
