| Hello, I just have a quick question for you, sorry if it’s a dumb question, but I really need to know: Is it possible to use a single UPS (un-interruptable power supply) to support two separate desktop computers? I think this is what they call dual conversion, but I'm not sure… |

| No, actually it's not called dual conversion. It's called, if anything, "plugging two power cables into a single UPS". Dual, or double conversion is a whole different cat, what a dual conversion UPS does is convert incoming AC power to DC, and then converts the DC back to AC… See here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uninterruptible_power_supply#Dual_conversion_online |
