I use an older APC Back-UPS 500 to power my homelab and all network devices. So far it's saved me from 3 power outages, and can last about 30 minutes with a 50W power draw. It doesn't have data connections of its own (newer devices do), so I had to improvise with an ESP32 board that reports if it detects a voltage on the beeper, plus some cron jobs on Proxmox.
This is the real answer - get something that NUT supports
