Amazon is offering the CyberPower 850VA/510W 9-Outlet UPS for $79 shipped. Normally closer to $120 at Best Buy and $110 at other retailers like B&H, this is a new Amazon all-time low and is the best available. I run similar backup batteries for my Mac mini setup and love that I don’t have to worry about the power going out and all of my stuff crashing. You could also use this UPS to keep your network online during a power outage, saving yourself from those awful long router boot times. Rated 4.2/5 stars.
The AmazonBasics Standby 600VA/360W 8-Outlet UPS is a more budget-friendly alternative at $50 shipped. Though it doesn’t offer the same amount of backup power as the above CyberPower model, it does ship faster and is a little easier on the wallet.
