So - question to all my #techie friends: do you have an #UPS, and if so, which one (or ones if multiple)? With installing my new system and a DAS with 43T+ of spinning rust drives, I think it's important that I have an UPS again. (I have an APC, but it hasn't been functional for a long time -- the battery died, and I've never been able to replace the battery).

I'm really interested in which one(s) you'd recommend from a Linux standpoint. I want to make certain I get one that can cleanly shutdown my system if needed.

I am looking for a switch or relay to switch on command a mains AC power from mains to a battery-based backup AC power output. The switch should be able to be controlled/commanded from a raspberry pi or similar. The application is to switch the power to a large freezer and/or 500W dehumidifier on command from app in pi. No need for continuous power supply. Any suggestions very gratefully received. #relay #switch #AC #backupPower #UPS #electronics #maker #raspberrypi #uninterruptiblePowerSupply
