WTB Rackmount UPS 1000-1500 VA, NEMA 5-15P. Flexible 2-4U in height. Bonus points if near Boston to NH area for pickup
Only have a 15amp Standard US 110v NEMA 5-15P input. Sine-wave output. Double conversion OnlineUPS not desired but considered (due to more noise/heat/overhead).

WTB 2U Rackmount Server such as DL380 G9, Dell R730 or R730xd, Supermicro, .... w-IPMI
Dual CPU such as E5-2670v3/v4 or E5-2680v3/v4.
10c per CPU Min with Turbo Boost. 128GB RAM preferred but flexible to as low as 16GB. 2.5" Drive Bays and sliding rails are ideal but I can work that myself and use 3.5 to 2.5 adapters. Let me know what you have.

USA-MA Zip code 01730

I have a bunch of UPS's for sale. For rackmount, I have two 3000 va SMARTUPS's, one with decent batteries and one with batteries in poor shape. They won't be cheap to ship across the country however...
As for the plug, I made an adapter so I could power it with a 15A circuit. No problem as long as you don't draw too much power.

Thanks this is for a homelab and I only have a 120v 15amp circuit. I might be able to move to a 20amp circuit but that would require electrical work.

I have googled, but do not truly understand "Double Conversion" in regards to homelab UPS; can anyone explain? thanks

Do you have a FS post?

Looking at options for both the Server and UPS.
Anyone have good luck with the Eaton 5PX UPS?

$400 delivered is a bit much but fresh batteries
