Comment on Cheap UPS solution?

Others have given the direct answer of “no”. Cheap is relative, so here are some options that assume a higher value of “cheap”.

DIY solar panels and DIY flywheel generator.

Professional solar panels on your dwelling and professional whole house battery storage. (Fix the issue by fixing a larger issue.)

Buy an electric car that can power the equipment. A Ford Lightning (there are other choices) in the garage, that never moves, will solve the issue of swapping batteries. Check junkyards for a used one.

Move closer to a power plant, while also ensuring a minimum power line distance.

Move closer to something with a very high up time requirement. (A hospital may have generators, but they may also have a requirement for their power to stay up nearly always.)

Use AWS or co-hosting to make power not your issue.
