Ross Modglin and John Ross boast lots of experience in the UPS (uninterruptible power source) game, and they ultimately decided to build a UPS brand focused on extended run times, reliability, and durability. The Battery Backup Power UPS systems they came up with were designed to condition 'dirty' power and neutralize surges, as well as providing automatic backup battery power as needed. Their industrial-grade uninterruptible power supplies designed for use with 3D printers protect both the printer and print jobs in power outage situations. Even when lacking external power, 3D printers can continue to operate normally--and in most instances, the UPS systems are capable of powering a Makerbot Replicator 2 for over 23 minutes.
