Haven’t had anything back from ASUS as yet so will keep chasing
But incase you are keen in looking for a new UPS, a few pointers might be useful for yourself.
FWIW:
A normal UPS converts DC to AC and then your router will convert AC back to DC and this process is not efficient.
Most UPS are above 50W as its not worth them manufacturing any less, so if you are looking for a traditional DC to AC then 50W will give you extra capacity and cost around ÂŁ50 – 60 these can provide you with the UK standard 3 pin options to plug directly into.
A little bulky but something like below, which is on offer currently and has plenty in reserve

You can purchase Mini UPS but these can come with 3.5mm connections with direct 12v DC output so you will need to adapt your power wires.
