Just checked-the Amaya, computer and monitor are plugged into a 1500w APC unit
and it costs a LOT More than $100. Anything under $100 is not going to be
strong enough to power your equipment for more than the length of time it takes
to run in and shut it down...don't go for cheap price!
And those 'power strip surge protectors'....don't believe them. You are not
getting any 'protection' except 'maybe' from a large power surge but not from
power 'blips'. What you are really paying for is the 'warranty'...yeah, if you
have a computer get fried and you saved ALL the paperwork you can get paid for
it. That's what you are getting with those units. Most people throw the
packaging and reciepts away so no one ever claims anything and the manufacturer
puts one over on you!
Check your local Staples, probably OFfice depot has them...and get bigger than
you think you will need. That way you have the protection and backup power.
