Hi everyone... Costco has a $10 discount on the CyberPower 1350VA/810Watts Simulated Sine Wave UPS Battery Backup with Surge Protection. It's $89.99 in-store and on-line (+$4.99 shipping). I bought mine in-store. On sale until 11/28/21.
Features:
10 NEMA 5-15R Outlets
1x USB Type-A, 1x USB Type-C Charge Ports (4.0A Shared)
Automatic Voltage Regulation
Multifunction LCD Panel
Surge Protection/1500 Joules
A mini-tower UPS with line interactive topology, the CyberPower Intelligent LCD CST135UC provides battery backup (using simulated sine wave output) and surge protection for desktop computers, workstations, networking devices, and home entertainment systems. The CST135UC uses Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) to correct minor power fluctuations without switching to battery power, which extends battery life. AVR is essential in areas where power fluctuations occur frequently.
Two USB charge ports (2.1 Amp shared) rapidly power portable devices such as mobile phones, MP3 players, and cameras.
Product Details:
Capacity: 1350 VA / 810 W
Topology: Line Interactive
Waveform: Simulated Sine Wave
Output: 120 VAC ± 5%
Runtime (half/full): 10 minutes / 2 minutes
Plug type & cord: NEMA 5-15P, 6 ft. cord
Outlets: 10 (5 surge, 5 surge + battery backup)
Outlet types: 10 NEMA 5-15R
USB charge ports: 5V/4.0A (20W)

Data line protection: Telephone, Network, Coaxial
Management software: PowerPanel® Personal Edition
ENERGY STAR® qualified: Yes
User-replaceable batteries: 2
What's In The Box:
UPS System
User manual
USB A+B type cable

Sine wave wise, as far as i know with my research for a week, PC power supplies now days can handle either Pure and Simulated without any problems.
The claims about PC PSU need Pure are majorly talking about PSU 10yrs ago without standard like modern gold plat certificate. They only situation you need Pure is the electronics with sensitive wave requirements, which are medical equipment and laser printers etc, search what electronics need pure sine wave if you needed.
Also the premium Pure battery replacement after 3 year will cost a bit more than Simulated.
I am NOT against people purchasing the higher quality Pure, I'm just here to state that simulated UPS is better bang for the buck in terms of using it as PC UPS.
Compatibility issues with simulated sine wave are indeed far from a widespread issue, though a careful test might be recommended after giving the UPS a day or two to charge up. There are some risks to this test, but if you get 5-10 minutes of solid run-time you might expect the same in future real-world scenarios. I'll put a separate comment about my own recommendations regarding this issue.
One warning I'd add for an OLED TV is to check the peak power draw rating. I've seen OLED TVs rated for over 600W. This UPS is rated for a peak draw of 810W, and while an OLED would rarely reach peak draw often or for very long (unless you just stare at full brightness white screens all day?) you do want to ensure you have a decent overhead between your TV's potential peak draw and your UPS' peak load capacity. This is in part because you might need more than a couple of minutes to actually shut things down gracefully in the case of a power outage (and near peak load retail UPS times are indeed measured in minutes).
The specifications sheets for the two models suggest that the CP1350AVRLCD has denser batteries (9Ah vs 7Ah), giving it twice the runtime at peak load (and 50% more run time at half load). Of course, you could make this change yourself the next time you rotate those batteries out!

I have a number of similar APCs, so still holding out for the updated Cyberpower pure sine wave 1350 or 1500 to make it to Costco. Perhaps in 2022...

can you pls elaborate what you mean by "that gets a hotspot"? Not working, not stay on, or what?
