Power outages are usually very short (few seconds max). Are fanless ups ok or should I stay away from it. The one I'm looking out at the moment is Eaton Ellipse eco 500
If you only need it to skip the power outage, I would look at something in the range of 800W to 1000W in an online ups.
This wattage should run your devices for 5 minutes or so, as you have quoted them. The online UPS will always run its load off on the battery, so there is no swap over time. Other types will be fine for a PC or normal electronics, but the hitch in power could cause a defect in the 3D print.
Thanks
Fanless is great, they are quiet.
Usually the fanless ones have power power restrictions, or only kick in when the power goes off
