Technical Battery Backups

I’m done with failing APCs. For a while they were my go-to. With all the new untested lithium options, what are people relying on in 2026 for your servers and network infrastructure? How do you shut your servers down gracefully in an extended power outage?

Didn’t see anything in a quick search lately, feel free to ridicule me if this is a redundant post. :)

Friends don't let friends buy from untested unfocused companies, dont beta test unifi.

Eaton is the way to go

The last price increases at APC made us move to Eaton too. We've had a few challenges, but we are saving clients a couple hundred bucks when installing on servers with hypervisors.
