/Neglecting battery issues/, any observations on the typical lifespan of the electronics in modest sized (1500VA, sine, line-interractive) UPSs? Or, common faults? APCs tend to be pretty ubiquitous, but they don't seem to be particularly high quality (even the larger, more upscale units). OTOH, given our relatively infrequent outages, perhaps its time to just switch to "switched outlet strips", instead? And, grumble about the occasional "flicker"? (most of my machines can bridge brief outages on their internal power supplies) Or, deploy the even larger units to handle multiple loads? (sigh) More frigging work...
