Will connect following items to it (power consumption at max load)

CISCO SG95-24 (69W - nice)
Dell Wyse 5070 with Celeron J4105 (25W I assume?)
Airtel Dragonpath router (12W)
Asus AC68U (33W)
Raspberry Pi4 (10W?)
Seagate Backup Plus HDD 4TB (18W Spin up?)

I already have 2x Artis Router UPS (might sell one as the Asus router is not compatible with it).
Need something that will cover the occasional power cuts due to rain (some are 10-15 mins, some an hour or so)

I am planning to wall mount the UPS with some strong metal brackets + wooden base alongside a 4U/6U network rack in which all the above items will sit.

Not willing to spend a lot on maintenance. Also not sure about what budget to set.

Why not consider a centralised inverter? I basically ran my whole mining operation in 2018 on a Luminous 3.5 KVA Inverte. nowadays almost all inverters have very fast switchover items.. the only place they might not be successful is when there is equipment which has a very big jerk load or something.. but computers are aboslutely fine.. even my 4090 doesnt trip on my home inverter.

How much backup do you get (time)? Does it cost a lot?
Can you please share what you have purchased and total cost?

I personaly have a Luminous Cruze 2 KVA with 2 x 150 AH Batteries. the UPS was 11k at the time and battery was 11k each.

it is capable of running a load of 1600Watts at max.. roughly interms of backup if i ran 8 fans and 8 lubelights at the same time it would last roughly 6-7-8 hours. It runs everything in my house (including the PC) except for the hard stuff like AC, Geyset etc.

For your usecase if you dont have a inverter already at your place? getting one like mine should be a good choice..but if you only want to run your PC/the other stuff you can get a 1050 VA sine wave inverter with a 100 AH battery.. that should be able to run 800 watts contiously for about 1.5-2 hours or so.

cost would be something like 5500-7000 for the Inverter UPS and about 7000-7500 for the battery.

if you want to put other things on it you can aswell for eg a fan is usually 80-100watts and lights you know differ 5w-20w etc each.
