How many here (In India ) don't use any UPS?
I am just a bit curious to know how many of us folks here don't use any UPS for power back up .
Please also mention your reason for not using one along with your location .
How many using a CVT / Servo Stabilizer also along with an UPS?

Re: How many here (In India ) don't use any UPS?
Lol its advisdable to use one and especially in India its a must 
You dont know when there is a power faliure and then suddenly your system goes off.
I have had bad experience with it. One of my Mobo also went off due to that. And important is you loose all the data aswell if you are online the cookies are lost or deleated.
So better using an power back up. May be UPS or inverter

Re: How many here (In India ) don't use any UPS?
I do not use any UPS, but then most of time I use laptop and the only desktop in my home is meant to work as the data dump. So it is switched on, data extracted and turned off again!

Re: How many here (In India ) don't use any UPS?
The original question was to non-users of UPS 
But, like others am replying too - I'm using APC UPSes for 7+ years. They are great. Nothing like them.

Re: How many here (In India ) don't use any UPS?
No ups. My system restarts once or twice a month. Here we have uncut and super stable power for weeks. Though you can compensate for ups by having a good psu with a wide range of input voltage and overvoltage protection.
