Power went out last month in the middle of sewing, and the machine kept right on working. Power was back shortly but the machine did finish what it was doing without a burp! You can get APC brand backups at Staples now-cheaper than buying direct. I have about 6 of them in the office and shop-every computer is on one, various 'sizes' from 500 to 1500. It's cheaper to buy a new one than a battery replacement sometimes, so when I have to replace one-I get the next size up. Cannot run a printer on one (laser printer) because it draws too much amperage or something. =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list ===========================================================
