The simple answer is 10 to 15 minutes. But there is a lot of stuff to consider. I don't know what a typical desktop computer is anymore. Do you have an all-in-one like an iMac or do you have a computer with separate monitor? How about external USB drives or NAS drives. Is your modem/router also on the UPS? I have an iMac 27 inch (late 2015), a Synology NAS, an external USP drive for Time Machine, a powered USB hub, my ARRIS cable modern and my Linksys router all attached to my UPS. When the power goes out, I have never had a problem saving my work and doing an orderly shut down of all my equipment.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It depends on the battery size of your UPS and how much power consumes of your connected devices. Usually, UPS operates only a few minutes, so you can shut down your devices safely without data lost. The software UPS manufacture provided can show you how much time you have and can set to shut down your PC automatically before battery run out.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hey porchday, There is some variation in how much a typical desktop PC uses. For models with a 250W power supply, your run-time would be approximately 5.5 minutes at full load. Since most computers don’t run at max load, an estimate of 8-9 minutes would be more realistic if the unit was running at 80% of the max power, for the 250W example given. Thank you for your question.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Probably 30 to 45 minutes. I've never let it go to the end of back up.
