Jigsaw pieces
More news of exciting new uses for an uninterruptible power supply.
‘My friend did not want to pay the charge of 50p per cut from Wickes to get a 2.4m x 1.2m sheet of chipboard into his car,’ says Matthew Lowy at Compelsolve. ‘So he put the UPS in the boot and ran his jigsaw from it in their car park.
‘It quite happily ran it long enough to get the sheet into Golf GTI compatible pieces without running flat. But with some questioning glances from shoppers.’
Which we can all agree is a practical way to save 50p, provided the office server doesn’t crash while you are putting up your shelves.
