We pride ourselves in delivering you a seamless shopping experience. We understand supply shortages are frustrating and we want to continue being open to you, our Partners, about why we are facing industry-wide shortages.��
Unfortunately, supply chains continue to be significantly impacted by Covid-19. This recent Forbes article highlights the disruption Covid-19 and other factors have on worldwide supply chains. Covid-19 has caused manufacturing to run at a limited capacity with multiple related shutdowns, which has disrupted overall product supply and sub-component supply for future builds. These events have impacted manufacturer�s ability to build units, which has reduced inventory. Coming out of the many worldwide shutdowns, manufacturers have seen a significant spike in demand, which has caused massive inventory shortages.
For these reasons, manufacturers are allocating product into distribution. The inventory we receive is not enough to cover dealer backorders, making products unavailable on our portals and pushing back availability dates.
We process dealer backorders on a first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis. Your best chance at receiving an out of stock product as soon as we get enough allocation, is to place a backorder.
Thank you for your continued understanding. Rest assured, our team is continuously working to get additional inventory.

As part of our continued efforts to make the WattBox 800 Series the best power solution for pros, we are releasing firmware version 2.1.2.0.
Improved Over-Current Protection
This update increases the capabilities and performance of the 800 Series WattBox models listed below. We have improved the Over-Current Protection (OCP) feature by modifying the settings to ensure high current amplifiers do not falsely trip this feature, allowing for compatibility with more components. This firmware updates the OCP parameters, allowing for wider in-rush (Instantaneous Over-Current) and constant thresholds (Constant Over-Current), decreasing the instances of OCP tripping and turning outlets off.
PDU Restart Correction When Paired with a UPS
Additionally, we have addressed a bug that was making PDUs �remember� their last state when pairing an 800 Series PDU with a UPS. If the UPS is configured to shut down outlets before the battery drains and the battery completely drains, the PDU would remember the last state of those outlets being off and not turn them back on when power returns. This bug only happened to outlets that were set to �enabled.� With this update, outlets will now reset to their proper setting and the PDU will power back on when power is restored, even if the UPS battery is completely drained. This eliminates the need to manually press power to restore the PDU to its original state.
