UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply)

By -


UPS or the Uninterruptible Power Supply is a very important gadget to own to protect personal computers from software and hardware error, data loss and system corruption.

The on-battery runtime of most uninterruptible power sources is relatively short which is only 5–15 minutes being typical for smaller units, but sufficient to allow time to bring an auxiliary power source on line, or to properly shut down the protected equipment.

When I was still running an Internet Cafe business, I am using UPS for my Server PC to protect it from system errors and corruption.  During brownouts, I have no problem in logging out my customers, and charging them the right amount they need to pay according to their usage. 

At home, I also use UPS for our computers, especially on my laptop where all of my blogging files are kept.  Although, I used to do file back-ups in weekly basis but, it is still annoying and inconvenient formatting or troubleshooting and fixing errors if you can get rid of the problem.

Aside from keeping your equipments safe due to power interruptions, it also protect equipments from sudden power fluctuations.

    Nice one, mama Joy. ^_^
    A UPS is definitely a sound investment to keep your system and work safe when it comes to power issues. I usually advice getting rid of the cheap voltage regulators that comes free with a pc purchase as they tend to create more trouble than safety. I also advice against cheaper UPS also, as they seem to break down just when you need them. I stick with the APC brand for my UPS.
