    Smaller and more compact then the old one. Works like it's supposed to with no problems. Loose power quiet frequently in short spurts the Battery Back-Up switches on immediately.

    I have purchased 3 APC Backup batteries over the past nearly 20 years. They have all worked great. I expect that this one will continue to maintain their reputation for long life and consistent performance.

    I have the 650M1 backing up my tower and a Samsung 28" 4k monitor. The software is light on resource usage and claims i have about 32minutes of battery back up. This product is a good bang for the buck.

    I have four of these now that both my wife and I are WFH in different parts of the house. One is for our router and cable modem, but I also have my 40” tv and Firestick plugged into it. One is for my PC and work PC and the other is for her PC. The forth is for a small switch and NAS. We recently had a power outage during lunch and the only reason I knew we did was from the sound they make when switching to battery. That and our desk lights went out. Didn’t lose connection and the TV stayed on. It only lasted about 10 minutes and the transition was seamless.

    Don't give 5 stars 'cause when using a printer connected to it, it made the device beep every time the printer went on to print (was asleep). Problem solved by moving the printer to another plug on the wall. The other devices seems to be covered well from the surge caused by the printer when it starts.

    Compact but with enough outlets, this little guy is just right. I have my PC and Wii U connected (gotta save the game!) It has a smaller footprint than my previous APC Battery Backup. Small but mighty

    The APC 650V Battery Backup System is perfect for protecting my home computer from the power spikes and outages we get during stormy weather. It has already proven of value. It was easy to setup.

    A great, space-saving UPS operating OK, so far.

    The APC - Back-UPS 650VA 7-Outlet/1-USB Battery Back-Up and Surge Protector is working as expected. Its upright form factor provides great space-savings on my already crowded desktop. I simulated a power-loss by unplugging the unit from the wall receptacle, and it maintained power to all of the devices connected to the seven battery-backed outlets for more than the specified minimum hold-up time. The only negative I found is that the wider-spaced plug-ins on the top of the UPS that are supposed to be used with power bricks are not widely spaced enough for some of the power bricks of my devices. It was necessary to purchase several 20A-to-15A power plug adapters to raise every-other power brick above the power bricks on either side to allow me to plug in all of my power bricks.

    We have two computers in the same room so we needed a lot of plugs on the battery backup. There are several that are just surge protected too. The price is not bad either

    Unit works well and was on sale for a great price. The USB port is a great addition allowing the UPS to shut down your PC before the battery is totally depleted. Need to use APC Power Chute software for this to work.
