I think the model is APC 750va and it has a $75,000 warrenty with around one hour backup for a computer. I figure that would be good enough to finish a small design at 10,000 stitches so I could safely turn the machine off in the event of a power outage. Living in the Washington DC area, we get our fair share of summer thunderstorms and power flashing off and on and it has saved me several times. I know the machine has a power restore feature but I prefer the battery backup. I also have a light I got from Home Depot for $15 that automatically turns on when the power goes out so I'm not completely in the dark. =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list ===========================================================
