Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

So, Eaton, Liebert/Vertiv are your premium UPSes, and while they offer all sorts of quality and features, they are pricy.
APC was in this group, until they started going with their subscription model. Now you have to be wary.
Cyberpower is perfectly fine for home use - Costco sells one that has been pretty reliable for me (I have purchased 3 of them now). I do not use for my main server, but for all my desktops and HTPC that is what I use.
I use a Eaton P5X for my main, but my wattage is a bit higher than yours.
I can vouch for both APC and Cyberpower. My homeserver is very low wattage so I got a smaller APC one for brownouts and it has served me well.
APC makes good hardware, just their software route is going down the dark road. If you do not need the software aspects/use it as a standalone device, then APC still makes good quality UPSes.
That being said, the value:dollar ratio I still think cyberpower wins, especially for home use. My current design is Cyberpower (homeuse) || Eaton (Server/critical infra use)
