Hi, i live in india and have a very fluctuating ac power.My computer just keeps restarting whenever i get low voltages.Moreover my psu is 500 W.So i am looking at buying a voltage stabiliser or restoring my old ups.But i have used that ups before and it just makes my computer restart in fluctuating ac supply. Its very irritating.Budget:15-20$. Please help me.

So you mean the UPS goes down in low voltages too?

I think typical voltage stabilizers have only one power socket, so you will need extn. cord or similar to have your monitor, cpu and any peripherals connected. Also, stabilizers dont come for under 1500. The good ones can be upto 2500.

In my opinion, a UPS is a better option.
