You may be experiencing under-current, where the battery actually kicks in for a brief period. If you don't have lights dimming issues for millisecond outage issues, it might be the battery which nees replacement. In that case, a red icon with a cross on the battery should go off.

It's possible the internal batteries are getting old so it can no longer keep a charge. I had something like that happen to me before. Is it a fairly old battery backup?

I would advise you to call your local Batteries Plus to see if they know what's happening. Not sure, I haven’t run thru this problem.
