I remember a topic (but can't find it for now) where someone mentioned good experience with an UPS by APC for his S5, which gave him bridging time of about 30 minutes.
I for myself (and my UM3) selected a quick and dirty (and a bit pricy) solution by using a power station with EPS function and 1000W power, which leads to a bridging time of at least 5 hours (calculating from the maximum power use of 200W; real consumption is about 120W). The external power brick of the UM3 is slow enough to deal with the short (30ms) switch time of the EPS.
So your first consideration would be how long you usually have to ride out a power outage, so you know your need of energy, and then select a USV or a power station.
I use a Delta2 from EcoFlow, but I know that other manufacturers also have similar power stations with EPS function available.

In this stable release, Cura 5.3 achieves yet another huge leap forward in 3D printing thanks to material interlocking! As well as introducing an expanded recommended print settings menu and lots of print quality improvements. Not to mention, a whole bunch of new printer profiles for non-UltiMaker printers!
Are you a fan of tree support, but dislike the removal process and the amount of filament it uses? Then we would like to invite you to try this special release of UltiMaker Cura. Brought to you by our special community contributor @thomasrahm
We generated a special version of Cura 5.2 called 5.3.0 Alpha + Xmas. The only changes we introduced compared to UltiMaker Cura 5.2.1 are those which are needed for the new supports. So keep in mind, this is not a sneak peek for Cura 5.3 (there are some really cool new features coming up) but a spotlight release highlighting this new version of tree supports.
