I'm using CyberPower 1500VA rackmount UPSes and they stay right around 95-99 degrees F. It's hard to say if they were affected by the heat this summer. We bought a new air conditioner to keep it no warmer than 73 degrees F in here.
In a 16' X 24' workshop that's not insulated and has 8 computers and several 24 port switches and misc. other equipment running all the time it was getting VERY warm in here before.
