Re: 1U Rack mount UPS?

["Andy Whitfield" <andywhitfield2002@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Paul,
I haven't seen a 1U UPS for ages.
If I do see one I'll let you know.
But let me know at the end of the month if a 2U will do.
I haven't tested some of the 2Us yet, but if they have good
batteries in them then the cost won't be too much.
I've also got small floor standing ones.
Regards
Andy
