GreenlightUPS... official UPS sponsor of the FIFA World Cup?


We'll not exactly...  But when a major satellite company needed 20kva worth of UPS systems to provide backup to their equipment... they turned to us.  
They had 16 hours to evaluate, order and ship multiple UPS units from FL to their Air Cargo dock in CA, in time to fly over to South Africa.
None of the big guys could ship the units that quickly, let alone call them back.  We advised them on UPS approaches and selections, sold them on our International units, tested them, repacked them to meet FedEx delivery requirements and had them arrive in CA 10 hours later.
They told us of that some of their fellow satellite feed companies were still hoping to get their units from the big guys in time.  But with the World Cup starting next week....

What they needed
1) Needed International units
2) Needed Double Conversion Online UPS units (since all power is provided by Generators)
3) Needed 4 rack mount systems to split loads
4) Needed them under 100lbs

What they bought
a) 8000kva (896IG3)  - and yes its under 100lbs without batts
b) 5000kva (593IG3)
c) 3000kva (393IB) - not technically double conversion but good enough for backup
