- hagbard_c 2y agoAn on-line UPS is designed to run continuously. Equipment connected to such devices never directly connect to utility power, they always run off the UPS which uses double conversion (AC -> DC) to charge the batteries and (DC -> AC) run the outlets. You'll find off-lease online UPSes on auction sites, as said often without their battery packs but given that you'll want to run them using bigger batteries than normal that is not a problem.
