UPS Question

If a UPS is, for example, 640W - does that mean it draws that amount of power all of the time?

erm nope

If it's fully charged then it'll only draw a trickle charge plus whatever what's plugged into it.

Big Dom's right, I have a pair of 700va (450w) jobs and they draw about 25-40w a piece, the 640w your quoting should be the amount of load it can take.
