Check out one of these units from APC: <https://www.amazon.com/APC-Back-UPS-Connect-BGE90M-Charging/dp/B00NTQYUA8> <https://www.amazon.com/APC-BGE50ML-Back-UPS-Connect-Network/dp/B013JHYQNC> If you end up getting one, I'd be very happy to get a review on them as I'm already considering one for my modem and router in the near future. dafr _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
