CyberPower CP685AVRG AVR UPS System

It's rather a sad indicator of the time in which we are living. We live in Sacramento California, which despite being the capital of the state does not seem to lend any importance to our local electrical grid. We suffer many more power outages then I ever experienced during the forty years I lived in So. Cal. While this situation doesn't have much of an impact on our lives, it has made for a number of nuisances, e.g. each time we have an outage at my mother-in-law's home, her Ring doorbell goes offline and when the power comes back on the doorbell can't seem to ever reconnect to the WiFi router on its own. She's in her 80's now, so it's necessary for me to get the system re-connected (don't believe what Ring tells you about it will re-connect on its own, this one certainly doesn't). We don't have a smart doorbell (we have a brass cat and it always works after an outage!), but we do have a number of PCs and other devices that are usually online, so an outage that takes out our router is a pain. For my mother-in-law I installed a CyberPower UPS (battery backup) that keeps her router up and running during the outages we experience. It worked so well that I did the same for our home. Now when we lose power our router stays up and working, making it much easier to power down our equipment if needed, avoiding lost settings, etc. So far we haven't had long enough outages that outlasted our UPS's capacity. I'm sure it will happen, but the difference having the UPS for us and mom has been well-worth the expense, and actually the expense is relatively affordable for these small units. My rack-mount UPS for our main PC was expensive by comparison, but it too is a CyberPower branded UPS, as are all of the UPS in our home. I've found CyberPower makes the most reliable UPS for most situations that the average person might have. Long ago when I used their name-brand competitor's UPS they failed on a consistent basis. I was lucky to have just one of their units live long enough to need a replacement battery, while all of our current CyberPower UPS have managed to do their jobs and live to accept replacement batteries when the original batteries came to their end-of-life. We did have to replace two CyberPower units after our home was hit by two different huge power surges. Those units did their jobs and protected our equipment. You cannot ask for more than that!
