I think you need a good one in case electricity gets inestable. What do you need to know buying one? Which one do you recommend?

Technically you’re SUPPOSED to use an uninterrupted power supply for important things like an expensive computer but I just go with brand name power strips. I like Anker so just use two of their power strips in the office for computer and monitors. I’ve had more issues historically with a UPS being bad than a power strip but it is safer to go with a UPS. I heard decent things about the CyberPower UPS units but power strips are fine for me.

APC also has pretty good UPSs from what I've seen
