Uninterruptible Power Supplies

Jun.02, 2009, under Computer|Internet|Tech, Tips

One thing I have found very useful is the uninterruptible power supplies (UPS).The UPS not only serves as a battery backup in case the power fails it also keeps a constant voltage with no power fluctuations so if the power company has a power surge or there is a close by lightning strike it will be absorbed into the UPS and keep the voltage constant to your computer. I not only have separate UPS on the desktop computers I also have a separate one that my modem, router, printer and VOIP equipment shares. The power in my area is very dependable and rarely fails but if the power does fail the UPS gives you plenty of time to save your projects or files and shut down your computer properly. To me the UPS is well worth the moderate investment and can save you taking the chance of losing your expensive computer equipment.
