<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div><div><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>

<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>

<br><div><br></div>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>
