Go for APC ups.. 500VA for around 2100 bucks.. Its the best UPS there is!

Go for APC

I got STAR 500VA - old one.
Now that since i have upgraded to 17 in flat monitor, whenever there is power cuts - the USP makes beeps and shuts down. It doesn't even give me anytime to save my works. If I have to shutdown windows, I have to switch off the monitor, then the USP works for few minutes - before i can click windows button on keyboard and try to shutdown - memorising like click win button - then click UP button . then click ENTER, then click RIGHT arrow to select SHUTDOWN and click ENTER to shutdown the PC.

I think i have to get a new UPS - which can support 17 in monitors.
help me out.

Thanks

Hey Kalpik .. Its only Rs. 1950 now .. I bought one in june for a friend

I have APC Back-UPS ES 650Y-IN at home .. Its good
Comes with the Software n Datacable for auto shutdown in case of power failure
n u arent at desk

 

[kalpik]

How much did the ES 650Y-IN cost you?

@ princeheart
You can go for a 1000VA UPS which will be ideal to support large monitors and
high wattege SMPS. Microtech 1000VA(although not the best) is a decent performer in the low budget range.

Thx for the info bukaida - can u tell me the price of Microtech 1000VA and if its not the best - what is and what price ?

thx

I'm using UPS called "Perfect" I can tell you It's very perfect and It rocks. It'll cost you around Rs. 1,800-2,200. But I'll suggest you to get "Matrix" have no jist about the price but It's the best one.

 

[PrinceHeart]

I tried yahoo search for "microtech" and "perfect", but no good result. Are they local brands ? I had heard about APC many times before. Does they got 1000VA UPS ? I got no idea about all this stuffs. With my present PC config, all i want is when the power goes off, my UPS should be give me atleast 10 mins to save my running programs/files before shutdown to avoid hardware/software problems which is bad news for PC's health.

Anyone with more infos ??

thx

 

[kalpik]

Yes APC does have a lot of models. Check out *www.apcc.com/

 

[bukaida]

well prince heart , the spelling they are using is MICROTEK. It is quite old and reputated company not a local one.Google it .

 

[PrinceHeart]

From what i heard APC is a good company for these UPS types..
Sorry for the spelling mistake for Microtek, I will surely have a look. And since Im planning to get my 2 CPU connected, i think i will be needing a better and advance UPS to keep those 2 CPU online anc connected.

Thx to all !!
btw.. the thx button is not showing today. does anyone knows what happened ?

cheerz

 

[Brave_Hunt]

I guess they've removed that function or else It doesn't appear on QnA section.

 

[shanket]

I think u should go for Su-Kam....
I have been using it for around 5 yrs.... But i hv faced no problems as such.....

 

[PrinceHeart]

Well i asked my vendor to let me know about ACP with 1000VA. He will let me know in a couple of days.

I have seen ads on TV about Su-Kam.. I tried searching for its website ? Does they got any website at all. If yes - kindly post it here. Nothing wrong in taking notes before buying a good UPS.

thx
