I’m running a rather small homelab and am hunting for a good UPS to help keep everything running smoothly. My top priorities are:

  • Just enough battery life to keep things running until they can be shut down
  • Compatible with open source software for monitoring and automated shutdown

Would I have better luck getting a used one and a new battery, or a brand new unit altogether? Anyone have one they don’t need anymore, on that note? 👀

Thanks for the advice!

    I bought mine through refurbups or whatever the site is. APC rack mount. New batteries. It’s been rock solid since. apcupsd running on my proxmox backup server. Everyone gets it’s info from that.
