Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: This sounds like magic! How does it work?
A: First, you provide a new power source for the computer, such as an Uninterruptable Power Supply
(UPS). Plug the UPS into HotPlug, then plug HotPlug into the same power strip the computer is using.
Unplug the power strip from the wall. The instant this occurs, HotPlug detects the loss of power and
reroutes the power source from the wall to the UPS. The transfer of power occurs in a few milliseconds,
so the computer never loses power. Now that the UPS is providing power, you can transport the
computer wherever you need it.
Q: How long does HotPlug power the computer?
A: HotPlug doesn’t power the computer directly. You must provide a UPS to power the computer.
HotPlug handles the transfer of power from the wall outlet to the UPS. You should use a UPS that is
robust enough to power the computer as long as it takes to transport it to its destination.
Q: Has CRU patented this technology?
A: Yes, we have a provisional patent on HotPlug, and plan to seek a full patent.
