Posted .Hello, A UPS battery backup is not meant for extended use. They are designed to provide enough uninterrupted power to be able to shut things down properly in an event where power is lost.

Posted .Hello Panther911, It is best practice to look up the power requirements of the equipment before making a purchase. The SE450G1 is a 260 watt unit. A PS4 and a TV is likely exceeding the capabilities of the unit. If you need assistance with product selection, please reach out to our sales team at 877-297-6937 option 2, and we'd be happy to help.

Get it
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this thing. Instead of plugging a single device into one socket you can plug 8 devices into 8 sockets! Also does great in power outages and fluctuations. It's done a great job for me.

Excellent battery backup!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I live in a place where power issues are common, and this product has exceeded my expectations. I am using it to keep a 24 inch curved monitor, and a brand new gaming PC, as well as a brand new WiFi expansion system alive whenever there is a power problem, and it's kept everything working right and without problems every time there is a blackout, and whenever there is some power surge, my devices barely ever feel the impact; if they feel it at all. The design is quite common, but its compact looks would sit well anywhere it is set, and it's long cable is just perfect for it to reach easily where you need it. I would recommend this to anyone!
