6-Hour Backup (forget brand) at Pricesmart ~95k
Tripp-Lite at Pricesmart ~c75k

Get one for each, TV, PC and XBox.

I have three of the 6-Hour, and 1 Tripp-Lites. Haven't compared the two, the Tripp-Lite handles slightly higher sustained load so I put it on the XBox, which was otherwise getting reset on power spikes to the 6-Hour connected together with the TV.

Never buy FORZA, total pieces of shit.

Speaking of electricity, my rates just went through the roof just this month. 1000Kwh went from c60k to c95k per month. Fucking monopoly (ESPHA). And the power they serve is so bad I still must spend several hundred dollars on UPSs.

Not likely.

I have two Tripp Lites that I bought at Price Smart, 1 for PC and PS2, 1 for TV and PS3, works perfect.

I had a unit from pricemart. a 400 tower.. Good stuff.. It held a 65 inch sony with a bose system and a Wii.. Was'nt enough.. only held it for 30 mins.. moved up to a FORZA 1000.. It's been fine for a month now. A place called INCOMEX in pavis.. With the power here it's tough to keep a ups for too long reguardless... If I read Adam's post before , I would of not of bought a FORZA.. Vamos a Ver...

One for Each might work for some, but does'nt seem right.. One unit big enough should be fine. Get a big one and leave a little room to put something else on it in the future... Why have three boxes taking up more room when you can have one . It's the right way to go..
