Hi All,

Apologies if this is in the wrong community.

I'm looking to get a UPS for my home server. It runs Homeassistant, Plex, and a few other things. I mainly need something to protect from power flickers/blips, and for it to allow a proper shutdown for prolonged power outages.

Here is the power useage on all my devices:

  • Server: 350w
  • NAS: 90w
  • Router: 42w

Any info on what to look for or which model to buy would be greatly appreciated.

I didn't realize APC was going that route. I wanted to vomit after I saw what came up on Google.

I don't want a UPS to connect to anything outside my network. Pretty much goes against the principle of selfhosted.

    Completely agree. It is sad, but with the current marketplace of "SaaS all the things" it is not really surprising.

    I want my UPS to be in my OOB network - It should not even be accessable by users in the network. Its completely isolated off.
