Upgrade your gaming with an Eaton UPS
Blackouts don’t need to mean game over.
Whether you’ve just spent your time leveling up, defeating the boss, or collecting new loot, the last thing you want is to lose this progress. All of your hard work, time, and efforts are wasted as the power goes out. Queue frustration, anger, and a feeling of having wasted your time.
Particularly common in winter, blackouts cause interruptions to your power supply that can last anywhere from a couple of minutes to several hours to several hours. These blackouts can come from factors like extreme weather, the energy crisis, and the high demand for power. The risk of blackouts is becoming ever more prevalent with factors like these becoming more and more prominent. If this hits, say goodbye to all the progress you’ve made in your game and prepare yourself to start back from square one.
However, it doesn’t have to be this way. Whilst you can’t prevent blackouts from happening, you can be prepared to counter them. With an Eaton UPS added to your setup, you can continue your fun no matter what is happening around you.
What is a UPS?
A UPS, or Uninterruptible Power Supply, provides backup power to your electronic equipment in the event of a power outage.
If a blackout or power outage occurred whilst you were gaming, your UPS would switch from the mains to its batteries instead, keeping your device alive. Depending on how long the power outage lasts, this backup power could keep your devices running for long enough to continue playing until the power returns. In the case of long lasting blackouts, the extra run time you get from the UPS will give you a chance to save your game and protect your progress.
If you like to play with friends, your UPS can also be connected to your router to keep you online.
