    I've been using APC Back-UPS for 30+ years, at home and work. This is a recent purchase for home office use. I bought the same 650VA 6.5 years ago, and yes never changed the battery. I'm in Florida, ligtening capital, and have never lost equipment. I will continue to shop and purchase APC when needed.

    Bought to power/protect network equipment and some audio equipment. Have installed several for similar uses around the house, so stuck with what I knew worked. Will typically keep low power devices going for an hours or two

    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.

    It's a battery backup! The only thing with this unit is that the dry cell cannot be changed out once its dead, like the larger units. 5 battery powered outlets with 2 widely spaced for the adapter bricks

    This is an excellent light-duty UPS. We have a remote vacation house on a lake in northern Maine and the power frequently has little "hiccups" and sometimes extended outages. This prevents clocks from losing their time, light from blinking on and off, and can keep other small electronics humming for those little blips without missing a beat and, when the outage is longer, depending on what you have plugged in, you get a short while to prepare yourself before you have no more power. I have a few of these to keep some lights going, Internet modem/Wifi, and cordless phone. Well worth it.

    The rectangular prism shape is the thing - takes up less room. Exactly what I needed where I needed it.

    Purchased to replace a failing UPS. This APC Back-UPS 650VA has enough outlets to accommodate our electronics, as well as sufficient surge protection capacity, at a great price. It has performed flawlessly so far.
