Life isn’t certain but one thing you can be certain of in life is that your power is going to fail at one point or another. When that happens you can either be prepared with a UPS on your PC or you can go commando and be caught short.

Ever been pounding away on something that was of the utmost importance when out of the blue *wham* you’re suddenly sitting in a darkened room with a sick feeling it the pit of your stomach as two hours of hard fought work goes into the ether? Yes you can be smart and save every three seconds but that slows progress and helps to derail your train of thought. You can also buy a UPS and work assured that when your power does fail you’ve got time to save and exit your work and shut your PC down properly.

Today I’m taking a look at the Ultra 2000VA / 1200W UPS and I’ve even been fortunate enough to put it to a real world test that can help to show what you can expect from it.

Let’s see what Ultra has to say about it:
