Many people that I know have been working on something on their computers and lost data due to a power failure in their home. In a worst case scenario, damage can ensue to the electronic equipment, especially in the case of power intermittently going off and on.
Many people I know are using power surge protector power bars to power their electronics such as Audio/Video, Computers, modems, routers, printers and more, hoping to protect their electronic equipment - but there is more that you can do.
Did you know that a UPS can not only save data, but it can help to protect the equipment, as well? Using a UPS device means you will have ample time to safely and properly shut down your equipment and make necessary saves to your documents should the power in your home fail to operate.
This would make a great gift for your significant other if he or she doesn't have something like this that they can rely on for future power failures.
Here's why you need this:
When power goes out for even a second it can result in data loss and hardware damage which can shorten equipment life expectancy. This battery backup unit provides sufficient emergency runtime power to allow for safe closure of open files and proper shut down of electronics when an outage occurs. In addition, it safeguards electronics from commonly occurring power surges caused by storms, activity on the power grid, or high-powered equipment turning on and off.
And here is what people would typically use this for:
Typical Use Provides backup power and surge protection for home and small office computers, wired and wireless network routers and modems, home theater systems, game consoles, and personal electronics. Safeguards valuable documents, photos, videos, and music files from loss or damage due to power fluctuations and surges as well as uncontrolled equipment shutdown caused by power interruptions.
