Smart Computer Power Source
I wish I had a Smart Computer Power Source which would act like a 1-2 sec UPS during a Power Failure.
Power Failed 2 times today. Very odd. Each time it took less than 1 sec. The lights went down and up… and that was it. All the computers got reseted, except for the laptop (guess why?
) and surprisingly my old computer (P3 450MHz) which is running as a LAN server.
I don’t need a full-blown UPS. Or… maybe I do, but I don’t find the immediate use of it since I already use a Power Surge protected sockets. I don’t want the computers to reset at each minor (micro) power failure. I want them to support a 1-2 sec failure. I personally believe there are some better (simpler) ways of overcoming this kind of problems instead of attaching a backup battery to the power source… future will tell.
