Excepting the fact that you wont have power to your monitor, the best place to add a UPS if your going to build your own is actually at the around 400-1000 VDC section inside the power supply... converting down to 12VDC, then back up to 110, then up again to 400-1000 (varies depending on the PS) wastes a considerable amount of energy compared to simply going straight to the higher voltage. Of course, to actually implement this, one would need.. hmm.. an Array of Rechargable Nine Volt Batteries?
