Luckily my rack is only 10ft away from my breaker panel and I've got some spare slots so no issues there. Aside from the price of copper of course...

You will probably need a 20A circuit and plug for anything >1000VA.
I have a small PDU I can’t use because of that. 😊
Don’t discount cyberpower, the name is a bit strange but they make decent gear.

Hey everyone, I'm looking to buy a used rack mount UPS to replace a couple of standalone units I've got sitting on a shelf in my rack. Specifically I'm looking for one with expandable capacity to get extended run time for my network gear if there's a long power outage. Realistically I only need about 1000VA since I just run a couple single socket machines, but larger would be fine too.
If you've got one let me know, I'll be happy to lug it out of your basement for you!
