Working good so far to keep several lower powered devices (NAS, router, ISP modem) online and to allow an NAS to gracefully shut down when utility power goes out. While one can put desktops and other higher power consumption devices on this UPS, they may not stay powered by the battery for long. The outlets are spaced slightly more apart than more expensive and capable UPS tower devices. However for some the orientation of the plugs themselves may mean putting larger plugs/wall warts on the top or bottom outlet. The solution, which I assume others do with other UPS units is to buy very short extension cables that allow one to use larger wall warts. Battery IS user replaceable. The USB outlets ARE powered by the units battery when utility power is cut off. The Synology DSM program will properly use this device, when one connects the USB cable from the UPS's USB data port on the side of the unit to the Synology NAS's USB port. Its important to understand that these lower end consumer UPS units are not designed to keep your equipment powered for hours at a time. They are designed for keeping equipment powered during short power outages and or allow one to gracefully shut down the computer or other device connected to the battery backup outlets. And it should be noted that most consumer level UPS units do not recommend connecting high power consumption devices like printers or microwaves to them.

The last one i had was solid, although the surge protection only side stopped worked 6 months past the 3 year warranty. But the USB connection to the computer and software always keeps me current on power use, and that the UPS is working correctly. Great protection, and works as intended. I wish I had the ability to turn the three plug connections sideways when I have long power connecters so it doesn't cover the connection next to it. All connections should have battery backup, not just one side, hence the 4 stars.

Compact size works well . I connected a 34inch monitor, PC, wireless router and laser printer. For this kind of setup its a good value. I would recommend it

UPS does what it is supposed to and the CyberPower PowerPanel Personal software is great, giving full configurability of the UPS' operational configuration. I like the power consumption metrics it calculates as well. I have dinged it 1 star because the mounting points on the underside do not come with any hardware or best practices/instructions for actually mounting. Took me a few tries to mount it properly to the underside of my standing desk.

This does what it's supposed to do, only negative thing is the fact that the internal battery is not secured in place so it clunks when handled. I use this to keep my tv in my semi truck from shutting off when the engine automatically starts. It works great.

It works good. The open box is not a problem. Easy to use.

I like having battery backups on devices, gives me a few minutes to turn everything off. I would think that all of them would include a surge protector, which is more important for Tv, VCR, Disc play or what ever similar you may have. Could probably use for a computer but I purchased more robust one at Best Buy and with much longer battery time to keep running devices.

Easy to set up and compact for tight spots. Plenty of both surge protected as well as regular outlets.

It’s a really solid PSU, I’d recommend for 3d printing, editing or long draw computer times. But not at the same time… long story short I overestimated the ability of the PSU, along as your not trying to power a nearby city with it (like me) it’s a great PSU

Very good product! Takes a while to charge fully (almost 6 hours) The duration of time you can use it once charged depends on what you have plugged in. Video Game Consoles literally deplete the entire battery in less than 5 minutes. Watching TV, it will last hours though.

Cyber Power 650VA, is a good backup power supply. It has 8 outlets with 4 battery power outlets to protect any electronic devices. In my case an i3 computer and a 20" screen. It provides clean power against brown-outs and occasional power drops, specially in Florida summer. During power outage this UPS provide me ample time to save my work and shutdown computer. It has excellent 3 yr. Warranty. I definitely recommend cyber power 650VA. It's a great buy.

When we bought this, it has some weird rattle noise from the inside like there are loose screws or something. It works perfectly though, and has allowed us to not lose power on a few mission critical appliances in our office!

Operates as expected. Watch the load you plug into this unit

Works as advertised and simple to use. Only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is that when the power goes and and it activates it makes a been every minute or two. It gets annoying, but at least you know it is working.

This UPS aka battery backup is solid for performance and has two usb ports for charging devices which is a nice feature. I can easily recommend to anyone for protecting their electronics.

Perfect for those little power blips to maintain internet/router/wifi connection. Great compact size of unit. Plug is bulky and at awkward angle. Big plus to have USB ports.

I use this supply to back up my security system power. It works as advertised, but even though it has eight outlets, only four of them are battery protected. The other four are just surge protected. The main problem is that the four outlets that are battery protected are all so close together that the equipment that I have (router, cable modem, etc), cannot all plugin together because those items have small power blocks that cover at least one extra outlet. The power supply should be redesigned to use some of the blank space to space out the outlets so that it will accommodate power bricks.

This is a nice UPS for backing up a computer desktop - plenty of outlets, and (depending upon what you have plugged in), plenty of time to do a proper shutdown when the power fails.

Well, it's a UPS with battery backup, and as far as I can tell it's doing its job, I haven't had any issues so far, and I think I've owned it for about a month now. The product is quite a bit lighter than my previous unit, which is a plus to me. It's also good that it has two USB ports to charge your devices, my older one didn't have that. Based on my experience, I guess I'd recommend this product to others, it wasn't too expensive, and if it protects your computer and gives you a bit of time to shut things down in the event of a power outage, I'd say it's a good purchase, basically a cheap way to insure your equipment.
