The Technology Vent and Rant Thread

Hmmm... The pricing on mine doesn't included the extra 10th of a cent but the links at the bottom are not useful as they are also all to UPS. At least the copy/pasted version is a bit more verbose than the naked links in the original conversation.

I found some great options for Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) under $100. Here are a few deals you might find interesting:

1. **APC Back-UPS 425VA (BE425M)**: This model is priced around $50-$60 and offers 6 outlets (4 with battery backup and surge protection, 2 with surge protection only). It's a compact and reliable option for small electronics and home office setups.

2. **CyberPower CP425SLG Standby UPS System**: Available for about $45-$55, this UPS provides 425VA/255W of power with 8 outlets (4 with battery backup and surge protection, 4 with surge protection only). It's a good choice for basic home and office use.

3. **Tripp Lite 550VA 300W UPS (Internet350U)**: Priced around $60-$70, this UPS offers 6 outlets (3 with battery backup and surge protection, 3 with surge protection only). It also includes a USB port for monitoring.

4. **AmazonBasics Standby UPS 400VA**: This budget-friendly option is available for about $40-$50. It provides 400VA/255W of power with 6 outlets (3 with battery backup and surge protection, 3 with surge protection only).

These prices can vary slightly depending on the retailer and any ongoing promotions. Would you like more details on any of these models?
