The "VA" rating of SoHo UPS only indicate how much power UPS can supply to PC. The runtime in minutes will be mentioned in small text - only that number will give you an indication of the battery Amp-hour rating. said by Equis : I liked the battery idea because I though it would give prolonged uptime, but not worth it if its going to blow my gear up I am confused by this statement. You always need more batteries for prolonged uptime. Is there another way?

I liked the battery idea because I though it would give prolonged uptime, but not worth it if its going to blow my gear up You can use a UPS as a charger. Take the output from the battery, not from the AC out. Cheap chargers usually overcharge batteries. Flooded cells can be refilled, but gel cells are quickly destroyed. Off the shelf UPS usually contains microscopic batteries. External battery is needed for any serious backup use. Also get a ups with an ethernet card so that you can remotely monitor the status.
