[QUOTE="JohnCL, post: 1043555, member: 84508"] First off a 700 is plenty to run your iMac on battery. I run my 21.5 on battery when the power fails and have never had an issue. You need a new battery at this point and they are pretty cheap. You are probably looking at the 60 - 80 dollar range for a replacement. OSX has built in management that becomes active when you plug in the USB cable from the UPS. You are able to control how long it stays on battery before shutting down, etc. You will also have a pop up on the screen if power is lost and restored letting you know of a previous failure.
