Greg– I have DataShield 300 Watt UPS and it works well. It is a standby
power unit as opposed to a continuous UPS. For situations where brownouts
are a way of life, a good unit to get would be the TrippLite OmniPower. It
combines a standby UPS with a constant voltage transformer. They have 2
sizes: 400 and 1200 watt. One of these days I plan to sell my UPS and get
the OmniPower 1200 watt unit (it costs approx $750), but so far I don't
have any direct experience with it.
It gives you a nice feeling to keep right on working when the power drops
out momentarily.
