In my opinion, yes- it's overkill. I personally would probably use the Astron to float a deep cycle or SLA battery on it's output. You might also want to investigate adding a PWRgate or similar Schottky diode matrix to the mix. This would provide not only the protection against abrupt power failure that you seem to seek, but also provide some additional operating time in the event of power fail. Those UPS units are designed to run for only a handful of minutes, while a computer system shuts down.
