    Works great for my computer and printer. Keeps them up for around 30 minutes under normal use with power off. I love it.

    These units fit much better on a desktop than the horseshoe design. Time will tell if they perform as long and well.

    I purchase this unit to maintain power for my cable modem, wireless router, and home phone. Gives about 90 minutes of uptime with this combination which is great for unexpected outages. I wouldn't recommend this unit for a high end PC though as I suspect it would where the unit out prematurely.

    Repeat brand buyer. Solid and dependable for years until battery dies. Then either replace battery or whole unit.

    This battery back-up system is amazing. I never have to worry about my computer power being interrupted. It has plenty of plugs. Works great. I leave both of my computers on all day and night so it is important to have battery back-up. I have two of them for both of my computers. Much better than just a surge protector.

    Good light duty APC UPS for a laptop based office setup or a light duty home office system. Handles 27" LCD, 350 watt cpu, laptop charger, and small desk led lamp long enough to finish tasks and shut down. Not for high powered gaming or research systems.

    Works fine. Silent mode is a huge plus. The button is the LED, so it would be difficult to tape over it without interfering with the normal operation. Therefore, I don't recommend for a bedroom if you're sensitive about lights. Otherwise, small, and does its job.

    Bought this to replace my aging ES550. Smaller size makes the spacing of some outlets to close to accommodate some "power bricks" but not a problem for me. I like the addition of the USB charging port; I wish it would support the 10W needs of my iPad but it is very convenient for charging my phone.

    I use this as a surge protector for my saltwater aquarium. I have my powerheads plugged into the backup plugs. They both dray 3W each so they will run for several hours in the event I lose power while I'm away from home. Gives me a good peace of mind that my fish and coral will be okay until I get home.
