Santa Monica / LA Peeps - Need help finding a rackable UPS in the area

[codeyf]

Ok, so I am in our Santa Monica office, leave tomorrow eve back to Seattle. Just got a call that our Back Office team would like me to pick up a 2nd UPS for the IDF room. They want this one to be able to be racked on a 2 post rack, and APC brand.

Know where I can find that nearby? If nothing is close, a regular sit on the floor type will do, and I think I can find that at Circuit City up the street.

TIA

Hmm the closest places I can think of are compusa on westwood and pico or bestbuy on sawtelle and pico. I assume price doesn't matter. I can't recall any computer places actually in Santa monica.

EDIT: or actually on westwood and santa monica theres a PC club, call them and ask.

I bought a 2U rackmounted UPS from Best buy a few years ago. It was a 1500VA/933 watt beast. Not sure if they still have them for sale there, but worth a shot. Mine was about $149 I believe.

Ended up just grabbing a 1500va/865w APC from Circuit City a couple blocks away. It can be 2U mounted, but the hardware is "optional" of course.

Thanks for the input. I'm glad I just went to CC, as after doing some online checking of stores, they all had the same stuff, and this was the biggest.
