What you're looking for is an Uninterruptable Power Supply, also referred to as a "UPS" or "battery back-up."

A home UPS can be purchased from most electronics stores and websites for between one hundred and several hundred U.S. dollars.

What the use of computer UPS?

A computer UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) is designed to provide power to a computer system if normal power fails. The length of time a UPS will support a computer depends on the capacity of the UPS and the draw of the system being supported. Properly configured and installed, most systems will monitor the UPS and begin a normal shutdown when notified by the UPS that a power outage is in process. Some are large enough to maintain computer operations long enough for backup power generation to come online.


Why do not Acer aspire 5920 laptop shutdown properly It closed all open programs but not turn off system.?

If you are running Windows Vista or Vista SP1, it's because of some logout/shutdown/sleep bugs that are still present in that operating system. If the computer won't turn off after waiting for a while, do a hard shutdown (i.e. hold the power button for a few seconds until the computer turns off). In general this won't have a negative result for your computer, but it would be helpful if Microsoft could get the bugs out of Windows Vista sleep/hibernation/logout.
