I've got some nice full on-line double conversion units, but they are
noisy and less efficient. In my experience, a second hand APC SmartUPS
will sort enough of the most revolting power to keep things running
smoothly, and they are CHEAP. Despite owning several expensive UPS
units, all my stuff is behind a couple of second hand SmartUPS.
My last purchase saw me pick up 5 decent line interactive UPS units for
about $25 each as a job lot. New batteries for one were less than $100
(same brand as the UPS comes with) from the local wholesaler. I get 4-5
years out of a set of batteries.
If you had to budget for time, one blip on a RAID and the associated
recovery pays for the UPS. Cheap insurance.

Brad
