Do you use AVR on your computer?

We don't use AVR because there re now availble cheap UPS in the market and it's also regulate power. The main advantage is when there a power failure AVR turns off while cheap UPS can survive for 10mins long and you can save all your important documents and shutdown your computer properly.

Normally we should use it since the voltage is not stable. There are special plugs for computers sold in market. These plugs can provide stable voltage for computers. Sometimes we even use a special power supply which provides stable voltage or current output in lab. If you study circuit in engineering areas, you will touch these devices.

Yes i Know about it BUT if you Use UPS system it is more secure from AVR some UPS has Built in AVR. So it helps you more then AVR. and i dont have any of them.

Yes I do use an AVR. its a necessity. else my comp will be gone within a few days. Fluctuaions r quite frequent in my building :((.

i use avr bcos in our place always having a power interuption and always having a brownout so that i need avr to save all that i do i my pc even have a brownout...

lets define avr? automatic voltage regulators, this device keeps the power supply of your computer in a constant value, this device serves as a buffer and a control during power surges, for example a lightning storm is happening some miles away from your location and the electrical surges from the lightning produces spikes in the power that runs into your homes. without avr, this surges and spikes will toast your pc,literally, trust me, i had mine toasted during a thunder storm... avr works by reducing this spikes and grounding the excess power. and if its too much surge, its your avr that gets toasted and not your pc. UPS, is uninteruptable power supply, means it protects your pc during power shortage, low voltages and during power flickers, its like a back up battery. it works by switching power from your supply to its battery and back again if necessary, and most of UPS now a days have AVR in them...

my two computer use AVR, but my old computer doesn't use it. I think it is ok you don't use AVR on your computer if your electricity is stable .

Maybe it's ok to use electronic devices if the current is steady, but some currents fluctuates, and regarding the computer, which is very sensitive, it's important to use the regulator, thus the name regulator, regulates the flow of current.
