UPS suggestion

[Foxtrol]

need some advice on ups. my current ups (powerguard 1200va bought from global brand about 1.5 yrs ago) is dead.-pc immediately shuts down during power outage.

so what is the best option- going for a new one and hoping it won't die within 2 yrs or replacing the battery?

Suggest which ups brand or shop to go for if buying a new one or which battery to go for if replacing battery and how much will they cost. (cannot buy online ups)

I need an Ups too. Mine immediately shuts down depending on the games I play. When I'm on desktop idling, the Ups lasts up to 2~3 seconds. Not very useful at all. Why did it last only 5 months?

Micro Long backup ups. They uses lead acid battery. Total cost would be 32k. But this is a lifetime purchase. Only thing you need to do is to pour some distilled water into the battery once in a 3 months.
