Well for a "home scale" UPS you are looking at perhaps something around 1Kva which will give you up to 10 minutes runtime then you would be looking at paying 100-150 quid.
1kVa for 10 min ? Some tiddly little battery in it then ?
The VA rating on a UPS is a measure of the power output. Unfortunately this does not correlate to the AH rating of the internal battery. A ten minute life would equate to a 12-15AH battery. If you wanted a longer up time, it is possible to source a UPS with a bigger battery, but it would be more expensive.
