What kind of uninterruptible power supply do you use and why?
I was wondering what kind of UPS you guys use and how effective are they in terms of minutes/hours and what kind of features do they have. I figure a good UPS is one of the most important hardware pieces a good desktop can have. A power outage can eat those hard drives up...you know what I'm talking about
I personally use a Power Walker VI 2000 LCD 12000watt, it has a cool usb cable interface which allows me to control its functions right from the browser. I hooked up my monitor, computer, PS3 and keyboard to it.
P.S. Yes my damn keyboard needs to be plugged in, USB juice just isn't enough for it. I set it to run a monthly self test of 10 seconds and the first test went smooth. 10 seconds = about 5% battery drain. I set it up that if power does not come back in 20 seconds, the UPS shuts down my computer. What kind do you guys use?
