Playing PS4 on UPS: which one to buy :Need Help

[bravoguy]

^^ How much the price you paid for APC UPS ?

 

[madSam]

UPS for PS4 to be used only for switch overs is probably the safest bet.But UPS`s like APC , not regular ones, but bad ass large ones with online/offline configuration etc which cost around 150K to 250K can be used for longer game-plays.

Proof: Industries IT specially are running very sensitive equipment on UPS`s these days but mostly tagged along with generators backup.

For smaller ups`s , switch over usage is probably the safest.

And when I say UPS , I only mean APC ups. Not alfa , not desi and not others .

Please share the details of your APC UPS that you're using for your PS4 and TV with me. I'd like to make the purchase too.

Tell me about the capacity and the model no., the batteries etc. Also, what would you recommend if I only wish to safely turn off the PS4 in case of a sudden power outage. I'd need only 10 to 15 minutes of backup.

Get back to me as soon as possible, thanks!

If anyone other than madSam has the answers, please feel free to help out.

Only Branded APC ups is a way to go for PS4, either single or double battery which ever suits ur budget.
Dont go for local, Chinese Homage etc.
I never had a problem with APC and I don't remember my model exactly.
Do calculate ur wattage usage keeping in mind ur screen over which u play.

I am using the same one. Got it from Hafeez Centre. Make sure the Sine Wave feature works on it and you are good to go.
