Budget is not an issue(the UPS is for someone else in family)
I'll eventually go for the APC if I find nothing. But right now for just a modem and router it is a major overkill.

If you have good knowledge on soldering and electronics then you can build your own. Just get a cheap ups kit from the local electronics spare parts dealer [its got all the instructions] solder it use a battery of your choice. DONE.
battery size will determine the backup time. bigger the battery bigger the backup. Greater load will require higher capacity components in the ups circuit. But your requirement is quite very less.

@noja , that sounds like fun, I would probably do that if it were my own system. But since I am getting this for someone else. I'll need something reliable..

My 600va V-guard ups gives 30minutes backup for my 40w lcd monitor connected and creative inspire m2600 simultaneously.

I was going to suggest something and suddenly realised that even i needed one for my router for smooth (no disconnections) operation during online play.
The only thing that held me back was getting one for my PS3 and another one for the router seemed a lot of money for a 600VA APC each.

I didnt know there were 1k UPS available. Are they reliable? i know just a router but even otherwise.

I almost know the answer myself but let me still try.
i had a UPS for a desktop i think V guard a few years back (5y?). Will it still work? The battery would have most likely died and i fear destroyed the unit itself (leakage etc)

SO my ques:
1.Better to get new UPS?

2.Get a new battery for old V-Guard UPS?

sry for hijacking someone elses thread

OK I have decided to go for a standard 600VA UPS, since nothing else is available. Just one last thing: small form factor. Budget is stretchable, but the table in which the UPS will be kept is not ;) . So please suggest a UPS with small dimensions.

Thanks
