Backup power: say what exactly you’re looking for

Backup power equipment in Singapore

Updated 4 November 2026

A small UPS for a home computer costs about S$144 to S$317 in Singapore, and a portable power station about S$190 to S$1,450, according to sellers' websites in November 2026. A home LPG generator starts from about S$2,556. For the price of the unit that fits what you need to power, send a request on BlaBlaPrice, and the AI will look through local sellers and price lists for you.

Energy rules for imported units

The National Environment Agency (NEA) sets Minimum Energy Performance Standards (MEPS) for regulated goods. Anyone importing these goods must make sure they meet the standards before registration, and the updated requirements took effect on 1 April 2025. Ask the seller whether the unit is covered and for its registration details, especially for an imported unit bought online.

Heat and where to keep the unit

Singapore is hot all year, with wet and dry seasons rather than winter and summer, so backup units work in heat through most of the year. Keep a UPS or power station out of direct sun and in a ventilated space, because heat shortens battery life. A power station taken on a camping trip faces the same heat, so pack it in shade.

How it is bought and delivered here

UPS units are rated in volt-amperes (VA), and power stations in watts and watt-hours, so compare the rating your devices need rather than the price alone. Prices are quoted per unit, and a generator is a larger purchase that needs delivery planning. Delivery can be arranged across Singapore, for example to Tampines, Jurong West, Woodlands or Ang Mo Kio, so give your district in the request.

What to put in the request

Say what you want to power: a computer, a router, a fridge or lights. State how long the backup must last in hours, and whether the unit will be used indoors, outdoors or both. Say whether you need a UPS for a computer or a power station for camping. Add your budget in S$ and your delivery district. Sellers will reply with their price and terms.

After you send the request, sellers registered on BlaBlaPrice receive it and reply in the chat with their own offer: price, terms and delivery. Your contacts stay hidden, and you decide with whom to exchange them. You can also send the request link to local sellers you know.
