actually, I'd take an Eaton Powerware (formerly Best Power) over a APC
any day.
APC BackUPS grade stuff is strictly cheap consumer gear, I've had dozens
of them fail over the years, all different BU models, the battery fails,
you put a new battery in and the UPS still won't work. They
consistently overcharge the batteries so they die in 2-3 years, when
they should last 5+.
The APC SmartUPS stuff is significantly better, but also a lot more
expensive.
