I have an adjustable bed and need a recommendation for a smart ups that will protect the bed.
No other major appliances will be attached or computers. Just need one for the bed.

I would ask you to review this APC FAQ as it relates to none computer loads for a UPS:

Other considerations if you decide to move forward with any UPS:
Pure Sine Wave: The hardware should be a pure sine wave vs modified (stepped) sine wave.
Load: Do not load past 80% of its capacity.
Runtime: Determine the actual wattage of the bed and use the APC Runtime Calculator to see if the hardware in question will meet your operational runtime during a lights out / grid down event.
Noise: If you’re a light sleeper it’s imperative to validate the UPS hardware will not emit noise that could affect your sleep.
All APC UPS have a dB rating which you can compare to any online noise chart. Keeping in mind any hardware that incorporates a fan will obviously emit more noise then a comparable unit that doesn’t.
