    Posted by: from Southington, CT on 04/11/2012The APC Backup ES 550 is a perfect selection when you have power interruptions for short periods (waiting time before your backup generator kicks in) that may affect your computer, modem and router. I have ours connected to our desktop computer, monitor, modem, wireless router, backup hard drive and printer. In a power outage our standby generator needs about a minute or so to cut in and there is ample power left on the ES 550 if it took 5 times longer or more. We were concerned about any damage from power spikes and brown outs which the ES 550 also protects against, so all of our concerns were addressed nicely with this compact and "ready to go out of the box" backup power and surge protecting unit. The unit was under $50 making the cost versus benefit of purchasing it a "No Brainer".

    Posted by: from central florida on 04/04/2012This is my third apc battery backup that I've bought over the years and they all worked as expected, which is great because during the summer storms in Florida we have lots of brown outs and lightening strikes in the area.

    Posted by: from racine Wi. on 03/24/2012For a home gaming system it is a great product. It is a bit heavy but it is a bid battery.

    Posted by: from Gainesville, Fla on 03/06/2012One of my older UPS devices finally gave out, so I purchased this unit to replace it. As expected, it has performed as intended. Setup was minor (connecting the internal battery to the lead). After that, plug the unit into the wall socket and away you go. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a home UPS unit.

    Can't live without them

    Posted by: from Oklahoma on 02/06/2012I have 4 APC UPS and use them for Computers, TV & VCRs, Lights & Phones. I live in the country and experience frequent outages from momentary to an hour. I can keep in touch with what is happening when I need to most. Be sure to use a reasonable load for best service. This was a replacement for a 6 year old one. Recycle at Best Buy!
