Four UPS’s

Four UPS’s did not make the trip to Indianapolis successfully.  All four have dead batteries.  What’s up with that?  Unfortunately the cost of a new battery is almost as much as a UPS. 

So, I went to Fry’s and bought three new ones today.  One is quite a bit bigger than my old ones and will have two computers a router and a switch on it.  The two computers used to be in separate areas.  But in our new location, they are a few feet away, so a better UPS than what we had before takes care of both of them.  Also, this particular one has a connector for cable.  This is very good as we are using a cable provider for our internet, telephone, and (dare I say it) television stations.  Compared to what we were paying in Lexington, we are getting the television part for free - i.e. what it used to cost us for internet and telephone.
