I am looking for ups battery for nut something that work more automatic on pfsense custom build with 1800x and 32gb ram and 960 nvme m.2.
Can some one help me pick ups and how they used nut to program and link me some of them that work well and last longer with less error?
I got quad gig lan card not sure if I get 2.5 gig lan and a 10 gig pcie cards can it use more power if I add more switches and app using poe++?
What the best ups brand to get and does it matter new to old as the list label moslty old models and not new and does the color chart matter?

Not directly with NUT. There's no driver support. Do they even have connectivity other than Bluetooth?

Don't go for the full "bells and whistles" thing.
Who cares if it can't make cake.
Go for the bare bone APC (the brand), skip the entry level main consumer devices, take the first one which offers you to change the battery yourself after 2, 3 years.
Check if it is well supported by NUT, check the hardware supported list. -

Unless they specifically say it does and provide some sort of app to control it that way I'd be surprised. But even if they do that doesn't mean there's a driver for it that NUT can use.

@gertjan can you give links which model do I buy and you had working with nut?

They run for 2, 2 and a half year, then I change the battery (easy job), no need to buy the 'APC' battery, just take a good brand lead 12V 8Ah - same size - and double their live.
Btw : These are the 230 V versions, as we like thin wires in France.
NUT recognized.
There is also a pfSense APC UPS package, never used it. -
@gertjan Can I get a Usa link of this version are Amazon good place to buy with out getting rip off?
