    No don't worry it was charging for about 16 hours before I ran it on battery power (it asked for 12 in the manual). I just wish this smell would clear the room now!

    I can't remember my Smart-UPS smelling at all when I got it.

    The buzzing & boinging while on battery is normal, buzzing any other time (for me) isn't.
