Try the SMART1000LCD, 1000VA / 500 watts, from Costco, $89.00. Pull the
battery, buy two more just like it from Interstate Battery, make 2 lines
apx. 20 inches each with 1 male and 3 female. plug in male to ups threaded
thru vents, put the three batteries on top the case and plug in. For ease of
handling duct tape the batteries together horizontally. They will always
come back when power is applied(default is ON), until circuit failure, about
4-5 years. Less if you have really bad power, like on a old dairy, maybe 3
years.

We used these a lot in commercial building closets, because of their compact

foot print, and excellent Power protection..
(Although never used the snmp card)

We've pulled almost all of them out to date. The reason we stopped using 
them is that like all other consumer UPSes, they tend to fail bad, when 
batteries die, and not restore power to the equipment until a site visit to 
remove UPS from service. (although we did like that it has a physical on/off

switch, not just button, to force UPS on state).

Whats also a pain is that the internal batteries are NOT easilly removable. 
You have to take it apart in half, and hope not to short anything in the 
process, and prey the leads stay on when put back togeather.  (unless 
they've changed the cases, for better access, since)
