Not familar with either product or SnapDeal.

However, you really need to consider your requirements. Manufacturers may claim a 2 hour backup time but that was most likely determined in an ideal, labratory environment.

There are online calculators for determining the appropriate UPS size. Many such calculators are manufacturer provided and tend to steer the potential buyers to higher end, more expensive units.

For the most part the real value of a UPS is to allow enough time to save your work and then do a normal system shutdown. UPS may also offer some surge protection. Think about how much time margin you really need to get back to computer, save work, and shutdown.

In other words do not use a UPS with the thought of being...

In other words do not use a UPS with the thought of being able to play games for an extra hour or so if power is lost. Good chance the internet will be down anyway. If you are commonly in a crunch to finish some work then perhaps more time is warranted.

The UPS cost increases with the "stated" battery backup time. If you really need more time then save up for a well known product and avoid any lessor brand names.

Go online to the manufacturer's websites: read the UPS User Manuals/Guides. Check the FAQs and forums. Be aware of where you plan to put the UPS. Many are very bulky and require air space on all sides. Wall mounted units (you can mount on any vertical surface - desk, bookshelf) may be more suitable for your area.

Not sure about the real "value" of double batteries. Seems more like a marketing gimmick than any actual end-user benefit. Just more to go wrong in my mind. If one battery fails do you need to buy them in pairs.....?

One last note: please be a bit patient with regards to getting any responses. Some people do research before replying. In my case our cable/internet service was down all morning....
