Customer Ratings & Reviews

A UPS is necessary to protect electronics from power surges and losing data during a power outage or brownout while you are working. It gives you time to save data and back out of the programs you are using. Hook it to your TV and you can continue to watch until the battery runs out of juice. I've used APC products for over 25 years at home and my office without problems. They saved me several times at my office when electrical storms or a squirrel got fried in local substation and caused power outages.

Works great. Provides a great backup when the power goes out and keeps things running until the generator kicks in.

The battery backup was what I needed for the size , price and performance.

This modest sized UPS does precisely what I need. Easy setup and very convenient to protect my equipment in frequent momentary power flickers in my neighborhood.

Terrrific product. Extremely helpful in Atlanta with occasional power blips that occur throughout the summer and fall. Ensures my computer and internet stay connected during these blips.

Well not unlimited per say but 650VA is still pretty good. Popped a few of these throughout the house and they've never let me down. Multiple outlets for plugging in my electronics and they've always kept me up and running for enough time to power down my computer or enjoy the rest of my show if the power goes out. Picked it up on a sale too so you really can't go wrong if you're in the market and catch it at a good price.

We wanted separate UPS back-up for the fiber optic signal converter, internet gateway and router from the UPS for our computer, monitor and VOIP phone. Previous short power interuptions, would cause the signal converter to go down even though the rest were still fine - still internet goes down when any single component fails. Last week we had 4 or 5 short power interuptions in a 10 minute span. With the new setup our internet stayed rock solid!

The same day I got my upgraded Windows 11 computer hooked up and running, my 3 year old APC UPS died; typical life span for these units. The new one is a step up from the old one, providing more battery run capacity. Pros: number of outlets and reliable APC build and performance. Cons: non-replaceable battery and limited recycling options. Best Buy sells these, but doesn't accept them for recycling. 4 stars reflect cons.

Got to test it already just one day after buying during a storm that kicked power off a minute or so. Definitely a must have for your computer or multimedia devices.

Right size to keep my server on line for those annoying power bounces. Works well, keeps it online for a short period. Not looking to run server for hours if power goes out

I have several of these strategically placed around the house. And, every time we have even the briefest of power failures, they kick in and save the various devices plugged into them. The desktop computers are particularly vulnerable - and these back up UPS' have saved the day many times. Perfect size, perfect back up for home use.

The local utility company (GRU) is nearly 2 billion (yes, with a "B") dollars in debt. The money was wasted on "alternative" energy projects that didn't generate a lick of power, now rolling blackouts, brownouts, and phase disruptions are commonplace, almost unheard of when I was younger, city can't emma' pay the interest on the money owed. Maybe for the average household, this may not be a problem, but I rely heavily on computers, consoles, and monitors for my job and personal security and when the power fluctuates everything goes kerflooey. Started installing UPCs everywhere and this was a little one I put on a monitor/ARC system for the master bedroom. Although not the strongest one out there, it has sure helped, eliminating the need to reboot/restart everything weekly to keep the system operating normally. These battery backups made by APC, beep (quite obnoxiously) when they kick on, giving you the opportunity to affect a soft shutdown so all is not lost and the system can be brought back up relatively painless. Oh, if you push the power button twice, real quick, it will stop alerting you to the power loss (i.e., stop beeping), didn't know that until I read the instructions!

Easy to set up. Instructions were clear. It wasn't heavy and doesn't make noises like the ones we have at the office. Perfect to backup the modem/router and should last through all the recent short power outages we've been experiencing. Frustrating to have to reboot everything twice in 1 hour for the short 15sec outages.

Great for home workstation. Has all the outlets needed for my cpu and monitors.

The unit was easy to install and is doing a good job as expected

Good size and lots of plugs! they have some of the cords further from others in case you have plugs that take up a lot of room.

This APC battery backup and surge protector is ideal for protecting your most sensitive devices. You never know when your electricity will surge or quit from a transformer failure. The APC-Back-UPS 650 VA 7-Outlet/1-USB is reasonably priced ang starts protecting your devices the moment you plug it in.

One of the best rated UPS units for the money. easy to set up and use

I bought this product so that if our power is out we will still have access to WiFi . When the electricity is out our cell phones are not the best for keeping up with the news or Electric company. We have not had a power outage so I don’t know if this product fits the description. So far, product is on and fully charged. I bought this product based on price and customer reviews. I have however charged my cell phone. I am giving this product 5 stars and will be purchasing another backup battery for my lamp.

This is the second one of these units that I purchased. The alarm went off on the first one exactly three years from the original purchase date. I just bought a new one since it was relatively inexpensive enough to spare me the hassle of getting the battery changed. I gave the old one to my husband to get refreshed. I like that the unit is very compact with a small footprint and has lots of outlets. Gets the job done.
