Brian asked:


I’m looking to have two computers connected to a battery backup/ups and i need them to last for at least 2 hours. Each computer setup (PC/Monitor/Speakers/Everything) will consume 90 watts. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Here’s the model numbers for the parts setup;

Monitor: ASUS VH242HL-P (50 W)
PC: ASUS Eee Box EB1012 (40 W)

I might also change the PC to the Netbook version of the same thing. Consumption is still the same, but it would come with a battery for $80 more so I might take that route. Then that would leave just the monitors to power. Hope this helps.
BTW, monitor includes speakers.

What does a Backup Sump do that a Backup Battery Pack won’t do for a Sump Pump? Thanks.

We have a small business where we run a PC register (Win 2000). We installed an APC battery backup (model ES 550) recently, and ever since then we’ve had problems with the PC shutting down, even when ythe business has power in the store. I tried uninstalling the PowerChute software and returning the PC to the native Windows power management, but that didn’t seem to help. Any thoughts?
