    We have had this one connected several weeks. It keeps a few things powered through power fluctuations.

    For my son's computer this is perfect. We live in an area that experiences short to long term power outages when there are storms. This unit keeps the computer powered while the backup generator starts. So it's modest capacity fits the need perfectly.

    Got this to backup cable modem and wireless router. Now, whenever we have a power outage, I can use any tablet to surf the internet (in the dark, LOL) to check on weather, etc

    I'm using this to protect parts of my home stereo that are always on - the DAC, phono preamp, and the DVD player (in standby mode). The APC protects these if the power bounces on and off when power outages start and when they are rectified.

    Battery back-up does the job. Has enough power to get multiple items powered while you have time to save or shut down. If you just have surges or quick power outages then you dont even know that the power is lost with these.

    I purchased this APC battery back up for a basement dehumidifier. When power blinks due to summer thunderstorms, the dehumidifier shuts off automatically. Having the APC back up provides peace of mind for keeping the basement dry even when we are traveling.

    Works good. I purchased them to avoid having the computer turn off at midnight during storms. So far can not complain. I bough two, one for my mac mini and the other for my router and modem. That way if the light goes out the connection will still available.

    This is not powerful enough for a mid-range PC, much less a high power workstation or gaming rig. You could use this for running the router or modem, but its not good enough for anything that needs more power than that.

      Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback for about our UPS. Yes this is one of our smallest UPSs and generally works better with equipment like a modem and router. This UPS would support 255 watts of power connected to it. We do have larger UPSs available if you wanted to protector your PCs. You could check our BN1500M2 which would support 900 watts of power connected to it. APC

    APC battery backup systems help provide consistent power to my electronic devises for when power flickers. It allows me the time to power everything down. Also our house was hit by lightning and these products saved my computer and other times.

    We buy these all the time. Not only great for it's typical use, but if you need to put something behind behind a UPS that might have bad power, and possibly outdoors - thing things fit in a 12x12 plastic box you can get from Lowes or Home Depot.
