AmazonBasics Standby UPS 800VA 450W Surge Protector Battery Backup, 12 Outlets https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073Q3BSPG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_LcW3CbJ5VVCJK
Just want a backup to see the power is out and the trigger Unraid to shut down properly. I know APS works well just wondering if Amazon's can integrate too.
I'm going to start with the assessment that you have an existing UPS like this one. APC 800VA.

You'll note that it's listed as accommodating 450W.
You've got a 750W P/S in your PC, and probably a ~100W LCD monitor (??). Note also that having a 750W P/S means that it is capable of supplying 750W, not that it necessarily does with your PC's hardware.
Your PC and monitor probably won't be much help, if your router/switch/AP/modem also reboot. So add another ~ 40W for that (not knowing anything about your home network)
Anyway, (750W + 100W + 40W ) * 1.6 == 1400VA
So, you probably want to look at something more like

But... note the the listed runtime at full load. In the case of this one, you get 2minutes. That's enough to ride out any momentarily blips, but not much time to do anything other than immediately commence a clean shutdown.
Still get an UPS to prevent future outages and potential damage from overvoltage, brownouts, and blackouts.

Thats the biggest one from AmazonBasics, others ones are APC, CyberPower, Trippe Lite. They just have to hold your equipment up for time for you to shutdown by yourself or power to come back into specifications.
I replied to someone else, but could something this basic do the job?
