I have had many UPS systems that I picked up at local stores over the years and they have all been pretty much worthless for anything other than protection from surges and letting my machine shut down.
I am looking for a UPS that will supply the 600watts my computer monitor, speakers and router actually uses and also last for at least an hour with that load. Most of the UPS systems seem to focus on higher output but have tiny batteries. I have found one called the Alpha Pinnacle 1000T that sounds promising since it takes external 36v batteries. The UPS can be bought easily for very little money but the extra battery packs seem to cost $400-500 dollars.
Any suggestions on what would be a good option? I want something quiet and hopefully not more than $300-400 dollars.
