Recently easy to power outage, I bought a UPS for their own desktop, 200, only plug the host and monitor. The problem is that I usually do not have the time to turn off the total outlet, and now add this thing, do not know whether to turn off or open good. If you turn off, it is necessary to switch at least once a day UPS, open 24 hours a day, then open the UPS, even if only 3 hours a day, both seem to UPS is not very good. Is there a more scientific way to use it?
