My home has utility power and a generator backup (full load), but in a power outage, it takes about 20-seconds before the generator power is active.
I have a system in the home that needs dedicated power, so i’m thinking a UPS. Total power consumption is 120W (max). This system will operate 6-months/yr at 120VAC.
15-yrs ago, the brand used for industrial purposes did not last a year before replacement was needed. The UPS was used continuously at 24/7 and i do not recall the power consumption by the system powered by the UPS. It was frustrating to be continuously replacing the UPS.
My preference is a reliable UPS that has at least a 2-3 yr life based on the 6-month/yr operation.
Simple request, any recommendations on make/model/size for this application? 120W is a small load, so how to best select/size the UPS based on this information?
Thank you!
