If my computer runs at 750 watts and this is rated for 810 watts, my computer would essentially be the only thing I could plug into it? I have several peripherals that I also need to plug in, I would assume I need another one for all of those? null

I would say you are correct in your assumption that an additional UPS might be required The wattage you are talking about is your power supply rating I am assuming so highly unlikely you would reach that power consumption at any time. That is just the amount of power it can provide if needed. Never, never plug in a laserjet printer. It will kill your UPS and that is not covered under warranty.

Thank you for your interest in our product. It would really depend on how much power the other peripheral draw. If they draw a small amount you would have some left over power draw the UPS that you could connect them. If they pull a fairly large amount of power then yes you would need to purchase another UPS.
