    This is a replacement for an old one I have that quit working. I like the smaller size and it was a fairly good price and works fine.

    When you lose electricity from your power company is when you’ll have greatest need to use your cell and/or internet and WiFi. The missing electricity is replaced with electricity from a lead acid battery which means there limitations on how long this unit will keep you functional. Plus, over a few years the capacity of the battery will diminish and need to be replaced.

    When there is a power interruption, the device starts beeping and does not stop untio you press and hold the on button. This requires me to get under my desk to press the button. Not acceptable to me.
