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.

    So, Eaton, Liebert/Vertiv are your premium UPSes, and while they offer all sorts of quality and features, they are pricy.

    APC was in this group, until they started going with their subscription model. Now you have to be wary.

    Cyberpower is perfectly fine for home use - Costco sells one that has been pretty reliable for me (I have purchased 3 of them now). I do not use for my main server, but for all my desktops and HTPC that is what I use.

    I use a Eaton P5X for my main, but my wattage is a bit higher than yours.
