    This is my second purchase of this model. I use them to hold up my wifi and phone system. Where I live it seems the power glitches if somebody shivers. This carries me through the glitches and will keep my system running for awhile darning an outage. From time to time I'll hook it up to my computer to see what state it is in. I wish batteries were a bit cheaper but, you only need to replace them years later. Don't go cheap on batteries. I did that once at the new battery didn't even last 3 years. The old battery had lasted 5.

    Highly recommend. Zeke from the Dover, DE location was not only knowledgeable but extremely comfortable in his position which made me feel comfortable as a new business owner. He provided the correct information on this purchase and I came back and bought 3 more!

    Our callbox can’t work without internet. If the internet is down homeowners ar unable to open gates and let guest in. I got tired of going to gate to reset the modem so I bought this UPS. Well it worked great! We Had a lightning storm that caused a power blip. The modem came right back on and the gates and cameras were back up and running. Recommend this highly

    This thing has saved me so many times! I have power surgers all the time. Prior to getting this i would lose all of my unsaved work. Now it has enough battery that I can save my work and shut down or I cna just keep working through the lose of power if it is short lived. It has already paid for itself in the time it has saved me!

    You can’t go wrong with Apc Ups. I have one in almost every room and have been replacing the unit or the batteries many years later after they quit and I haven’t had a single electronic fail in almost 2 decades. These are especially great for battery backup for your router and modem nowadays so that a little power flicker won’t have you waiting minutes for everything to reconnect.

    Backup Battery Does Its Thing Well

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This was the best backup battery for the price. I needed one with a bunch of outlets, and which didn't cost over $100. I work at a non-profit retail shop, and the computer is crucial, although we aren't running programs that use a lot of "juice", so this backup is perfect. We haven't had a power outage since I bought it, so I suppose this review is premature, but we've had other backup batteries just like this and they were just fine.

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

    Decided to purchase due to frequent power outages in neighborhood. Ironically since using it, I haven't had any outages so I can't really say if it works. It has plenty of outlets for the living room entertainment center equipment. Not to bulky compared to my older back ups.

    A Best Buy! This unit does exactly what it is supposed to do. I have a recording studio with a computer and peripheral hardware equipment plugged into this unit audit keeps them safe from surges and gives them smooth, clean power to keep the computer running cooler for longer life.

    Love It

    I love the design of this. I had the traditional flat ones that are semi bulcky. I like this because there are two spaced power ports, 2 are surge only (to prevent a heavy drawing power item from overloading the system) and the one USB port. I use this in the garage with some technical equipment and has worked well since. At the time, there were no reviews, but APC is generally reliable. I think there is one with 2 usb ports, but regardless; this one is fine. It's slim and the power cord is a decent length.
