Question need help with UPS Selection

[dodol_the_great]

Hi,
im currently using FSP Hydro 500W with active PFC and am currently thinking to get an UPS for it. i used a kill-a-watt and have a rating of 150W for my electrical consumption so im thinking a 600VA will do.
can anyone suggest a UPS that i can use for it ? since i read a lot that i MUST NEVER use a simulated sinewave UPS for it and kind of in a budget.

Almost all UPS for home users are simulated sine wave. Pure sine wave is for professional use and more expensive.

As what rocktalkrock said, simulated sine wave is fine for home use. I don't know were you got your information from, but simulated sine wave will not hurt your equipment. Anything with pure sine wave will be quite expensive, and for home use won't make a difference. APC makes a nice 700VA UPS for $115 on Amazon, and has a digital display.

Thanks for the replies. If simulated sinewave wont affect much of household wares, why is everyone insisting on pure sinewave for PFC active PSU?
