[SOLVED] Looking for a suitable UPS for new PS4 India

[Shantanu Ghose]

Hey guys,

Got a new PS4 yesterday and paired it with my Mi TV 4c pro.
Have already bought a surge protector and have plugged the TV and PS4 into it.

But, they will have no protection against a power outage and from what I have read, power outages can really damage a PS4.

So, could you guys please help me with this? I think I need to get a budget UPS that would be sufficient for both the TV and the PS4.

Thanks in advance,
Shantanu

PS4 PSU is 250W and your TV is rated for 50W, making the max power consumption to 300W. Same range UPS should be enough. Also, good UPS brands to go for are CyberPower, Tripp Lite and APC. Note: the more powerful UPS you have, the longer it can keep your hardware running.

For your use, how about this one:
CyberPower BU600E-IN (600VA/360W, simulated sine wave, line-interactive),
specs: https://www.cyberpower.com/in/en/product/sku/BU600E

amazon.in: https://www.amazon.in/CyberPower-BU600E-IN-Cyberpower-Power-Bu600E-In/dp/B00KLBFXNC

I too have CyberPower UPSes in use, i have two of these:
CyberPower CP1300EPFCLCD (1300VA/780W, true/pure sine wave, line-interactive),

Thank you. Did you buy this online or got it from a local store? Also, do you have any other suggestions? I have also heard APC is a good brand.

As i said:"good UPS brands to go for are CyberPower, Tripp Lite and APC".

For other suggestions, open Amazon India,
link: https://www.amazon.in/

in search bar, write "300W UPS", click Search. From the results, pick the one that you like; has good build quality AND also has sockets that you have in use there.

As far as my own 2x CyberPower UPSes go, i bought mine directly from the importer in my country. So, not online and not from local store either.

Ok. Thanks for the suggestion.
