    Got this on sale for $50 off. Overall quality and features looked nice, but one of the plugs was defective. I could not get a power cord to plug in to one socket due some kind of blockage that would not allow to fully push in. For this reason I had to return it.

    Bought this as a BB best deal for a great price. Was easy to set up, just insert the battery, plug into the wall and plug devices into it. I have my internet modem/router, NAS, mobile tel Microcell and another device connected, everything worked well from the start. To test the battery backup, I turned off the circuit breaker to the area, all the lights and wall sockets went off but the battery took over in such a short period that none of the connected devices noticed an interruption. Only kept it off for 5 - 10 minutes but during that time, internet connectivity and access to my NAS and other protected devices was not impacted. Don't know how long the protection lasts but I expect it to be more than an hour. Very happy with this APC unit..

    I have four of these in my house. They power my entertainment systems and computers. Completely necessary in FL due to blips in power and thunderstorms. They usually last about 4 years before i have to replace the battery, which is to be expected with battery backups. I also use 3000VA, 500VA and 350VA APC units at the office, they are hands down the best in the business.

    I have used APC unites for several years. I installed this model and I have had my power cut off and the unit worked flawlessly. I have the APC unites on my Server, Security cameras and work stations. It also protects my router, switch and power switch. I do not recommend anything but APC. I have 3 APC battery backup unites.

    The unit has proven durable during power outages and works great as a surge protector. It gives added peace of mind with my electronics plugged into it. I would buy this again and am debating buying a second one to use for more items!

    Awesome Backup

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I am using it as my backup for my Cloud Drive and router. It is very easy to setup. There is so much competition in the UPS market that it is a tough call to choose one. I am glad that best buy does not confuses and I brought this one based on the other reviews. So far happy with it.

    The APC NS 1080 kept me running for an hour long outage. I had a laptop docking station, 2 27 in displays, 1 all-in-one 23 inch PC, speakers, 3 CISCO VOIP phones, Headset, Router, Aruba network device and modem all connected for 53 minutes before power came back. Fantastic job!

    Great Back up power supply!

    Bought one for my router, wifi & ADT security system.. I have a 10K generator, but if I'm not home to start it, I have no access to my security system & security cameras remotely.. Tested the UPS and it works flawlessly!! Also, tested the unit on my garage door opener.. Chamberland lift master 1/2 hp... Worked perfectly!! Was a bit concerned with motor starting current and wattage, but the max it pulled was approximate 450 watts, wich was under the max wattage of the unit.. I did however put a LED light bulb in the opener for lower wattage total.. So, that being said, I purchased another unit for my garage door opener.. Now I have back up for my garage door if needed,,, I would highly recommend this unit!!

    Works as advertised. I returned a lower cost UPS and purchased this because the other unit wouldn't allow the buzzer to be disabled. With the power in this old house, it was buzzing constantly. Now, I have protection and peace. I'll be purchasing at least one more to put in another room with sensitive electronics.

    Excellent Backup Time

    I I have been using this battery backup for over 6 months, and I am really satisfied. I currently have a Dell XPS PC, with two screens, an Eero router, and a NAS Qnap; And it is giving me a performance of up to 40 min. For the price I paid, this is really an outstanding product.
