Actually, not sure Tripp Lite makes great usps
but not sure about the isobar. If it's big or heavy, then
probably a UPS.

I have been running Dell Vostro 1520 laptop for about 5 years practically
non-stop without any issues. I have cleaned dust bunnies out the fan a
couple of times. YMMV with other laptops.

The battery and screen are the least heat tolerate parts. If you can remove
the battery and put the laptop on a cooling platform. And keep it clean!

I actually cheat with the battery. I leave it in as a battery backup in
case the power goes outit shortens the life, but they become less
expensive as the laptop ages. But test them regularly - as they age and
can't hold a charge, they begin to heat up.
The cooling fan is a good ideaI
Make sure the person you buy the battery from knows the date of
manufacture. Batteries age and if the battery you are thinking of
buying is more than 2 years old, find a new one. This is especially
true of sealed lead acid batteries (SLA) used for UPSs.

I read on another board that it was bad to leave a laptop on 24/7 Is that

Well that could simply be the fact that they used substandard capacitors
and part for the ethernet, and as such it failed over time. manufactures
consider laptops to be pretty disposable after 2-3 years, any older and
they tend to get squirrely.

I have a laptop that is on 14 - 16 hours a day everyday for maybe 4
years. I took the battery out of it long ago in the hopes of salvaging
it. No problems so far with either the battery or the laptop.
I hear about all the hardware failures... I have been blessed not to
