Subject: [gentoo-user] Any UPS recommendations?
Date: Tue, 8 Jan 2013 08:01:47 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130108130147.GA26744@waltdnes.org> (raw)
I think my UPS is dying. Time to get a new one. It's been years, so
there may be new tech out there I don't know about. My normal usage is
* 1 LCD monitor 24"
* 1 (sometimes 2) "desktop" PCs connected to the monitor
* 1 ADSL router/modem
What brand and VA rating would people recommend. The stuff I'm
concerned about is the 2 or 3 times a year I get power flickers, or a
short outage. And also, if power is out for more than 5 minutes, and
the battery is running low, I want the PC to be able to sense that and
execute /usr/sbin/hibernate

I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications
