Good evening TGIF! You've all given me some great ideas. I'm a computer scientist so tell me what's wrong with this?
Can't I just use a high quality APC backup power system like we use to power racks of gear in our Telco and compute closets? A good one runs the full AC load the rack runs on. I've had maybe one or two short power outages in the last year and half at this house. The worst was less than a couple hours. Wouldn't it be good to put the few linear power supplies I want to keep on connected to the UPS. If I lost the counters or the DMM or really even the computers it's not that big of a deal isn't it the oscillators and OCXO's and their power supplies that really need to stay on? If I reduce the must have to them isn't it really all I need? I can restart the monitoring and computers. Ok so maybe I might get a small gap in data but the key is keeping the power supplies that drive the oscillators and their ovens running right?
