3 of 4 Cyberpower units have failed for me over the past 2 years. Also, on certain models a light touch of the power switch will turn them off. My APC units are working well although I begrudge the price, but I have gone back to them.

Unless you're spending serious money, I wouldn't rely on a UPS to keep things running. Instead, use the power fail signal to start an orderly shutdown.

As others have said, simply bang a power strip in to get the sockets you want.
