The best UPS for me?

[bharat_r]

My UPS has gone bad..does not work on battries when thre is a power cut.
I was using TVS ups & it wasn't good atall.

I'm planning to buy a new UPS.Can u suggest some good brand names to look for.

I have:
P4 2Ghz
Samsung 15" moniter
Motorolla Cable Modem
Creative Speakers
HP 1115 Printer/scanner 2 in 1.

I need to know which is a reputed brand.And what specifications would suit me.

Thanks!!

go for a 500va ups from apc , its d best. u will get it for around 2300/- (not sure) ... and dont connect ur 2 in 1 scanner/printer and speakers to the ups , it wont give u backup then and maynot take the load also.

if u want a more longer backup then go for a 600va ups from the same brand. bt i think 500va is sufficient as u have a low power hungry config but 600va will be even better.

APC (American Power Conversion ) is the one to go for dude.

I have Intex 600Kva. Bought it for Rs. 1800

Use Genesis. I've been using it for many years now. But I doubt whether the Company exists now...

how much did u get it for ? and what is the warranty duration on it ?

Mine is local made double battery (external) and it is giving me back-up of about 1-2 hrs. Touch wood till now no problems.

suggest me for
17" Compaq Monitor
p4 1.9GHz, JBL speakers.

Go for 800 VA with double exide battery as your monitor is big. so its the best suite for you.

[shwetanshu]

suggest atleats 2 or 3 companies and also quote the price + warranty period for a UPS of 800 VA.
