    Once I figured out the positive terminal needed to be connected (should have read the instructions) it was easy to set up and begin using.

    Bought this one to replace an older one after the backup battery had given up the ghost. The replacement battery was almost as expensive as just buying a new UPS, so I bought the 600. One issue with this product, is that the outlets are too close together. A normal plug fits just fine, but modems, external hard drives, etc. often have a big box (transformer) plug, and once plugged in, they intrude on the abutting plug. So, instead of having eight potential outlets, you may only be able to use six or seven. Seems like an easy fix as there is ample room on the chassis of the UPS to space the outlets a bit more. Surprised no one has thought to do that. Of course, if you are just using regular plugs, this works fine.

    Purchased two of these to protect my pc and other sensitive electronics. Only half of the plugs has the battery backup. The other plugs are surge protected. Good to know before you buy.

    When i purchased this item i did not know that it was refurbished. Had i known i probably would have bought a brand new one, nonetheless it does do its job. Taking the battery on the inside out to attach the wire was kinda hard to do. But it does the job
