Same here. A small UPS that will keep my modem, router, and POE for APs alive for the time I need to run outside and hook up my generator when PG&E decides to cut the power again. A bigger UPS for the small 19" rack that hosts some stuff. Top Gear Top Tip: I also have a UPS on my garage door opener. That saves the misses from dealing with manually opening/closing the garage door if I'm not at home.
Here in South Africa, motorized garage doors come standard with a 12-volt battery. The problem is most home owners don't realize that they need to be replaced every 2 - 3 years :-). So there are many homes out there which have had dead batteries for more than 20 years, and folk just accept that the manual handle comes down when the power is out.
That is, until you remind them to replace the battery. Mark.
