Hi mate,

Typically a UPS will have two parts to the connection - Battery Backup and Surge Protection only.

Can you confirm what you want plugged in to which part and what sort of uptime you are looking to achieve?

I have never used a UPS and don't know where should i place each part,
i also wanted to ask the meaning of these 2, because i am not sure if i knew their meaning.
battery backup option is used for giving a little time to the computer for saving files.
and the other option is only for protection?
I wanted to plug in a TV, my computer and maybe something else like a printer...
When u say uptime you mean how much time do i need the computer to stay on after the black-out?

A friend suggested this one :
UPS ΕΑΤΟΝ NV Series 800VA

Hi mate,

Yes exactly as you have written - battery backup will give power from the battery when mains goes out. Generally speaking we are in the absolute budget range of UPS for this price. If you get 2 minutes uptime then it's a half decent one for the price.

I would plug the PC tower and 1x screen into the battery backup, and everything else into the surge protection ports.

This is just a power adapter board, you can plug it in and it will work fine. Just make sure not to overload it too much otherwise if a power failure occurs, there'll be too much connected and you won't have enough uptime to shut down properly.
