Problem is, UPS's have only a limited time supply (depending on how big they are) because their internal batteries are only made to supply enough power to a computer and accessories to be able to shut everything down safely. You may get some more time out of one powering a mount etc, but not much more, so you're not really saving your subs. You'd have to shutdown within the normal discharge time frame or risk doing damage to the UPS and your equipment. Your best bet is to grab yourself a small portable generator with an inverter built in. You can still get an UPS and I would, because they condition the power supplied to your equipment.
