there are other factors which affect this. It is the current peak when a PC starts and the phase shift it causes. The phase shift should not be a problem but the peak.

I would not bother as long as you do not switch the computers on in parallel.

        The first thing is to be sure of getting  large enough UPS to
        bridge the few-seconds power outtages or fraction/section surges.

If they define 17 minutes, this device will be good for you.

Just get the online version to avoid surprises later.
