What's the VAC rating of your UPS? My 1500 ran over 100 minutes
when I turned off my server - it was at 23 minutes before that.<br>

<div>Yesterday evening the power at my office went out
and was<br>
</div>
off for about 8 hours. My APC UPS lasted for about 50
minutes<br>
of that. I'm thinking about buying a Duracell
emergency power<br>
source. <br>

The instructions for the APC UPS say to only plug it
directly <br>
into a wall socket. I'm wondering if I could plug the
Duracell <br>
thing into the APC UPS and then plug my computer stuff
to that. <br>
<br>
The alternative is to use them one at a time and
manually switch <br>
from the APC UPS to the Duracell thing when the APC
UPS is almost <br>
dead. I was around last evening so it wouldn't have
been a problem, <br>
but if chaining them would work, it wouldn't matter if
I wasn't around.<br>

If you're thinking of buying something over the
internet, you might <br>
want to buy it before the DFL taxes on online
purchases kick in on <br>
July1st. I think prices will increase by 6.5%
after that.<br>
