https://www.se.com/in/en/product/SRC1KI-IN/apc-smartups-rc-1000va-230v-4x-india-3pin-6a-outlets-harsh-environment/ - This is a normal standing UPS which is 1000va/800w

https://www.apc.com/in/en/product/SRV1KL-IN/apc-easy-ups-online-1000va-rackmount-2u-230v-4x-india-outlets-intelligent-card-slot-lcd-w-o-rail-kit/?range=65883-easy-ups-online&parent-subcategory-id=88976&selectedNodeId=27602448141 - This is the rack-mounted ups with the same specs as the normal standing one.

The problem is I bought the rack one and later in the spec sheet load calculator the normal standing one has a runtime of 8 minutes roughly under max load, and the rack-mounted one has 4 minutes of runtime under max load even though both UPS have the same specs, and even under lower loads, the rack mounted shows less backup time.

Why is that so? I didn't notice this before buying, did I make a mistake by buying the rack-mounted one? Help.
