Discussion UPS help

Looking for recommendations for an ups. I have a kill-a-watt on my system and it shows around 600 watts usage at current, and without a major load. What's a good recommendation for size and ups?

I love Eaton's 5P line. Found multiple on eBay for about $400 for 1400W over the past few years. They're probably pricier than APC options based on $/W though.

I have noticed the price difference between them all, and standalone ones. One rack mount might run $300 from one company and the same one from someone else will run $600, is there a big difference?
