    I haven't had a power outage, so I don't know how well the back up works. I like the smaller footprint and the spacing of outlets.

    I always buy APC when shopping UPC for protecting expensive or critical gear. My new $2K TV deserved the best so this was it. New battery connector external to the battery compartment is a nice improvement. Great deal at Best Buy as usual.

    Capable Unit - but no USB port for computer

    Got this UPS, switching back to this brand from Cyberpower Systems because the former exhibited bad behavior during power outages when connected by USB port to a computer. Unfortunately, this one has no communication port at all - but that is OK, as it is in use on a phone modem which it would not be able to communicate with anyway.

    Prefer the older models with a bigger, easily replaceable battery. Had a couple bad out of the box which is very out of the ordinary. They do their job well and the battery isn't quite so important now that devices are using less power.

    Works as expected. I especially like the new method for connecting the battery. Instead of removing the battery all you need to do is pull a plug on the bottom, turn it around and plug it back in. Very nice.

    Not much to say about this. I bought this to replace my old one (lasted about 6 years). Plugged it in, everything seems to work well.

    Bought this to keep my cable box, TV, and Echo Gen 3 operational until the generator kicks in. It takes over 20 minutes for my cable box to reboot after a power interruption. Works like a charm.

    I ordered the product literally after midnight and I had it on my doorstep @ 4pm that day. Amazing. I think they (BB) used a local delivery option and distribution center within my local store.

    At least for a little while. I use this little guy to backup power in my businesses network equipment which is the hardware provided by the cable company, a switch, a network storage device, and a router.

    Necessity If You Use Desktop

    A UPS is a necessity if you use a desktop to work from home. APC has been around forever, their units work well. The only downside is when the internal battery wears out, the cost of replacing is more than buying a new unit.

    This is the third APC Back-UPS we have purchased for our home. We now have one for our computers, our home security system, and our modem and router. Well worth it, since they last for years!

    It is a good basic APC UPS. The shape and outlet positioning is sensible and it just runs. I use it to keep a couple of switches going in my network and it has ample capacity for that.

    With random power outages it's good to have something to keep your PC from powering off the wrong way. Keep your hard drive safe with extra power so you can shut it down properly.
