Frequently Asked Questions about Battery
Backups /Uninterruptable Power Supplies
1. Do I need a Battery Backup for my office
computer?
2. What type of UPS should I buy and how
big?
3. How long will the batteries last?
4. Can I throw away the old backups?
5. What is the difference between watts
and volts amps?
1. Of course you do, unless you want to
loose all that important stuff you saved and let the phone
system go down.

2. I don't know what type of UPS you need?
Stop asking silly questions.... OK, the average computer draws
about 200Watts tops, but servers can pull a much greater load.
Runtime notwithstanding, try a Backups 500 for your desktop
and an SU1400 for a single server. Whichever you choose, choose
a good name brand such as APC, Liebert, Powerware, Triplite
and even the old tough systems like HP, Compaq and especially
Best can be reliable refurbished backup strategies.

3. The batteries usually
last 3 years, but you have a reduced the life if your utility
power is prone to spurradic peaks and valleys.

4. No, don't throw UPS
batts into the trash, as they contain lead and will poison
us all. You are going to kill us and our children if you do
that. Call your local battery dealer or recycler.

5. VoltsAmps or VA is
the apparent load, but watts is the actual load. I think APC
has a great white paper on this.
