Hello, 

i`m looking for a nut-compatible low-power UPS (need to hook a home-server+dsl 
equipment with a load of ~50W to that) which should be as energy efficient as 
possible and be also affordable.

i currently have an older powerwalker which constantly burns ~15W for nothing. 
The transformer inside getting that hot that you don`t like to touch it and i 
think 15W out of 50 is a little bit high and that inside a plastic case looks a 
little bit dangerous to me, too.  since this ups is old anyway, i`d like to 
replace it with a better one.

i have contacted several vendors and they could either not give accurate 
information or they gave information like "our UPS is 100% efficient in AC-AC 
mode" (Digitus DN-170020), which i cannot believe to be true, as an UPS is a 
electrical device which always consumes power for itself.

so, this is not a very nut specific question, but i have no idea where this 
question is better placed, as i think HERE are the real UPS experts :)

thanks
roland
