    Easy to install. Good amount of receptacles. Using for elderly Mother's lift chair and table light. Now I feel comfortable she won't get stuck in the chair, plus she will be able to see and maneuver during short blackouts, as well as charge her cell phone. Wants 3-prong plug, but will work with simple 3/2 adapter.

    Great UPS at a great price. Have used APC Back-Ups for years. Always great quality and price. Easy to connect and use. Of course, make sure to plug in your devices accordingly. Backup & Surge will provide backup power for your devices and Surge will only provide surge protection, not backup power.

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

    We've lost power several times and yet never lost the ability to just keep on with what ever I'm doing. Sudden surge spikes and sudden power losses are hard on electronics. By keeping the important things plugged I'm keeping them safe. And by them I mean my smart TV, computer, iPad, and new very expensive Samsung phone.

    I always put a UPS between my computers, tv, game systems, etc. You can't put a printer or sound equipment on the battery backup area but monitors, PCs, network routers\wifi, and game consoles work great. This device will keep them from crashing during power surges or interruptions. The only knock on this particular model is that it doesn't have a USB port that connects to your PC that allows you to monitor and control it. Still, a solid purchase and worth every penny.

    This worked exactly for what we needed. Battery backup for multiple items , 7 outlets was even more than needed.

    This back-up works like a charm! We've already had a couple of local power outages, and this product kicked in brilliantly. Also, the USB charging port works quickly.

    If you live in FL you already know you need this. For saving your computer equipment, yes. But also to continue working on the computer and finish what you started. Just remember to put one one the router/modem too.
