Does anyone have a recommendation for a UPS for a 60 watt laser running on 220?

I had a guardian angel at one time, but my little devil got him drunk, tattooed, and left him penniless at a strip club. I have not had another angel assigned to me yet.
I didn't change my mind, my mind changed me.

For a 60W laser you probably need 2000 VA or more.
2000 VA corresponds to 1400W : My 60W Epilog draws 1500W when vectoring on full power and overheats my UPS after about 10 minutes of cutting acrylic.
Did you want it as a UPS, or for line conditioning?
If for UPS, then you will need HUGE batteries to keep the laser going for more than a couple of minutes.
My UPS is a Chinese job (no safety markings at all !!!!) which cost £200. The nearest equivalent with a recognisable brand name was around £850 at the time.
For line conditioning you will need an always-on or dual conversion UPS - which is, of course, the more expensive sort.
