UPS - Uninterruptible Power Supply

 

Any devices you plug into the UPS will determine the runtime (length of time before full battery depletion).

 

Pick a brand, total the load/watts, then search "<brand> runtime calculator" and to get an idea on how long they last when the power goes out.

 

In an enterprise environment, I stick with the brand APC.

If I was to buy something personally to just turn off my PS5 gracefully, I would probably go for a reasonably priced CyberPower UPS off Amazon.

ok i look it up well i mostly need it to be turn around for at least maybe 4 5 minutes but mostly when comes closing the game and turn it off console may take 2 minutes or less who knows all depend if also im passing a game may take me longer since i may be middle of saving the game and then closing game may take me extra 3 minutes or less

It's really down to how long you want it to keep things powered on for. And also if you want it to keep your router/modem/TV powered on so you can keep gaming, or at least be able to manually power it down to avoid issues. If you just need it for taking 5-15 minutes to get to a checkpoint/save point, that would be perfect.

I think it might be discontinued but you may still find them for sale but I have three CyberPower 1325VA Pure Sinewave UPSs at home (I think the model is GX1325u). I have one for my PC, one for my HD/Digital Home Theater and Console setup and one for my SD/Analog TV and Console setup. They all give a enough juice to run a screen and system long enough for me save and quit a game and properly shut everything down and then some.

 

I would look for something that's pure sinewave. I know modern PC power supplies tend not to like simulated sinewave UPSs too much because of Active PFC, but I believe modern consoles are the same way.

Can confirm, i live completely off solar+battery so i'm always watching my consumption, i pull 200-250 watts with my PS5+32 inch 4k QLED TV.

Why do you hate the earth!? lol.

Anyway, if the PS5 is drawing 200 the 4K TV is only drawing 50w? That's interesting. I would have expected the OLED to draw more than that.

 

:Edit: nvm. My eyes are getting tired - I read OLED where you said QLED. time for bed.
