Our UPS for our mainframe is the source of its power.  The mainframe IS running
off the UPS batteries all the time.  The power lines from the electric company
are constantly recharging the Uninteruptible Power Supply batteries.  That way
when a power outage occurs there is NO switch over to worry about that might
cause a glitch of some kind.
   If you could get a UPS for your CoCo that could maintain the system during a
typical outage (probably 1 to 5 minutes in most cases), and the system was
contantly running off the batteries and the incoming current was constantly
feeding the UPS recharge circuits, then it would be smooth sailing or
monitoring or controlling...

Just a thought, anyway.
