is there someone using a SmartUPS for a home PC here?

As title,
since modern power supply use Active PFC and this power supply doesn't like the simulated sinewave of the PowerSaving series,
I'm evaluating the possibility to buy a SmartUPS for PC use.

Is there someone here who use a smart ups for pc use?

Do you think that buy a smart ups for a home pc is a smart choice?

Hi,

I use a Smart 750 at home. I wanted s pure sinewave UPS because my older BR1000 series wasnt sinewave and my power supply used to make a mild humming/hizzing sound.

With the smart 750 I have no problems at all.
The thing that run off my smart ups are
PC
24inch LCD
Modem
Wifi Router

Smart 750 is quite small for my configuration, 1000VA should be good but I don't want to overkill too much,
I would like to have a pure sinewave but I really don't need the extended battery and net functionalities of the Smart series.

I like the green mode of newer smart series, high efficiency is really much appreciated. 99% of efficiency is a wow result.

is your ups loud? does it have fan?
