Customer Ratings & Reviews

It was easy to set-up and works well. You do not have to connect battery wires as with some other brands. It performed exactly as it should every time I tested it. Note: although the battery came partially charged, you should charge it up fully per the instructions for maximum performance. The only negative is that it beeps every 30 seconds when the household power goes out and it is running on battery power. You can disable this using the included Windows software, but it will remain disabled only as long as the USB cable (also included) is connected to a computer. In my case, I don't want the UPS connected to a computer. I temporarily connected it to a computer and used the software to turn off the beeps, but as soon as I disconnected the computer, the annoying beeps were back. Too bad, otherwise rating would be 5 stars.

This battery runs my wireless router and vonage box and can charge my cell phone for over an hours time. I'm not sure exactly how long the battery can last because the unit beeps every 30 seconds when the power goes out. Not sure how this is a feature since the whole point of the unit is to supply power when you don't have any. I've had to find my way to the unit with a flashlight and shut if off several times when the power has gone out at night. If I was getting another unit I'd make sure it doesn't have this beep!

It's not the most pricey UPS out there, but I still can't recommend it. The battery in mine wore out in about 13 months. Now that the battery is gone, it will crash a PC on a brownout that wouldn't affect one plugged directly into the wall. As near as I can figure it, it must be instantaneously failing over to the dead battery on any flicker which crashes the PC. Maybe its not so bad to get a years protection for this price, but I have two others that cost twice this much that have protected equipment for nearly four years with no signs of failing.

I have 4 of these units and they all do the power backup job very well. Be careful if you have a power generator and need to use it. For some reason some of the units beep after the generator is on and you neet to remove them form the circuit to restore your computer or other devices being supported. Kind of sick I think.

This product works well as an inexpensive backup power solution for my Internet connection. Provides plenty of power for the cable router, Wi-Fi base station and the VoIP router.
