Need help in buying a UPS.

V

I am waiting for Piledriver.. But my old Mercury UPS (after 4 year of service) is behaving strangely now.. So i thought of buying a new UPS which i can also use in my future build.

A back up of atleast 15 minutes will be good.

My old UPS was able to draw power from my home Inverter.. So I am also looking for a new one that can also do same.

Thanks for your time :smile:

The bulldozer will be surely replaced by a piledriver.. But till it is like this

Thanks sarath for your reply (^_^)

But is there a good some what less price value for money UPS in 1.1KVa variety ??

I don't need any auto shutdown feature.. Just need a standard UPS.

intex 1.1kva is available for ~2000 & seems like a good value for money option.

If you can stretch your pockets go for any of the APC(800 VA or 1.1KVA)[Lot more recommended than Intex]
the Intex one isnt bad. Would give you a few minutes to turn off your PC(I think it should hold for 15 minutes)
