Hello everyone!

I have a mini UPS for my router that works great, but now I've invested in a new computer and am worried about load shedding stuffing it up.

It's an i5 12th gen CPU, 650W CPU, 2 sticks of ram, 32" screen. I have a Samsung soundbar too that I'd love to keep on. That's mostly what needs to be powered.

I'm looking for something mainly to shut down my computer safely, but +- 45 min to 1hr usage would also be great. No UPS with beeps etc, must be fairly quiet. Any affordable solutions out there?

TIA
 
I use a couple of these,

With the Viewpower software, I set my PC to shut down after 5 minutes and switch off the UPS as well.
So no beeping, except for the 5 minutes.

You can switch off the beeping completely as well via the software, but I prefer to have it on as a warning.
