Living in the Caribbean, this is a big issue for us. I would avoid the little SOHO UPS units, they will not last very long. Always over rate your UPS and I would not play with external batteries, it is more trouble than it is worth. You can buy refurbushed 3U rack mount UPS on Ebay for little money, usually telco grade and about 1500 VA. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=44963&item=5202751352 &rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW
