Hey guys,
Our crappy little Dynamix UPS bit the bullet the other day:

I'm not sure what happened but it randomly turned off. I talked the guys throught aking it out on the phone and when i tried it myself it seemed to work OK. But I have ehard bad things about Dynamix UPSs so thought it was time for an upgrad eanyway.
After reading Freitasm's thread on Eaton UPSs in July:

i thought I'd try them out this time. I have my eye on this one Eaton Evolution EVLi650R:

It's for a 18u 450mm deep swing cabinet so its about the biggest that will fit. It will be powering/protecting:
1x 48 port 10/100 switch
1x 48 port 10/100 PoE switch 9with about 15 PoE devices)
1x QNAP NAS with 5x 2TB 7200RPM drives
1x Supermicro short server with Xeon e3-1240
1x AC cabinet fan
I estimate that equipment would be using 300w at peak so this should suffice.
Any comments? If you read this thread Freitasm how are your's going?
