Finally a UPS

 I finally got around to purchasing an Uninterruptable Power Supply for the Davis console and the Raspberry Pi.  If you know Linux, it isn't good to just drop power from the PC.  Probably more so when the operating system is on a SD card.  I'm not really running much else with it, so I should have a bit of run time, though the internet would probably be down, but the Davis should collect wx data for a bit.

It will definitle help with the short 2-10 second power outages that happen a few times a year.
