I have an APC 500 whatever the rating is. It is pretty much the smallest of
the ones they do. I have a Compaq 166mmx running on it, one drive, no cpu
fan, no monitor. We had an 11 hour power cut the other day starting at 2 am
and wifey got up to turn off the APC alarm after about an hour. It was
still
going strong then which is pretty good. Can't say when it died as I was
away
that night.

I'm just pondering the possibility of getting a small UPS for my soon-to-be
HA PC and I'm trying to figure out how much run-time I'll get off one. How
much power does a PC usualy use? I have a 235W power supply - does that
mean
that the machine is literally using 235W? Does anyone have an answer to
this?
Thanks,
Oliver.
