| Depends on the UPS make sure its the kind that doesn't simply switch to battery power in power loss but one that draws off the battery as it charges it. Otherwise you may get power spikes from teh generator if it changes idle speeds quickly. thats my .02 (sorry if thats vague the 1st ups is a cheaper one the 2nd that continually draws from the battery not the power line is the better ver.) | ||

| computer PSU's are switchers so they dont really care what you give them as long as its within its operating volatge. if your UPS runs your comp it feeds it a dirty square wave and if you use your comp in an airplane (never know) it gets 400hz 120 volt AC. it depends on the quality of your generator but id still go with a UPS. even with a laptop during a black out i still put the UPS between the generator and lappy. | ||

Anecdotal, but i dont think PSUs like dirty power that much. I think the power in the dorms was pretty bad, i know half a dozen people who PSUs crapped out inexplicably, more than one in some cases... ![]() | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
