I bought this to plug my PS4 and X box 1 into since I have frequent power failures at my home. The power has "flashed" a few times since I purchased this equipment and it has saved my gaming systems from being fried.

This UPS does a great job of smoothing out the rough spots caused by frequent brown outs. Don't let one take out an expensive piece of electronics. Also has ethernet protection to keep your network safe, too.

My daughter bought it for her numerous electronic equipment. She moved back home 3 years ago. The unit was over 8 yrs then and this year the battery died. We purchased a similar model, same company.

When I lighting stroke my neighbors house I lost a tv, computer and home theater, all connected to a power surge. All the devices that were connected to this UPS continued to work fine. Now I have one of those on each room with expensive toys, like LCD TVs, home theaters...

Got this on a daily deal at a great price. Simple hook-up and since it turns off the peripherals when the computer goes into sleep mode am sure we are saving energy while protecting the computer.

APC is the baja vehicle of battery UPS units

Hello all,
If you have been an IT professional for years, you know APC is the standard when it comes to battery backups. We've used Tripplite, and Cyberpower and prefer the APC units. This unit is no exception, you can tell just by the weight of the box when you pick it up vs. the Cyberpower. Not all UPS units are equal-- don't skimp when it comes to power protection, the extra $ you save with an inferior product will cost you later. They provide a network cable to not only protector your power supply in your PC, but also your Ethernet port (which can save your motherboard if networking is integrated). I almost gave 4 stars because it doesn't include a USB cable for connectivity to your computer but that is a commodity and low cost item to add and only if you are protecting a machine that you want graceful shutdown in the event of an extended power outage. If you Google Powerchute Personal Edition you can find and install that on your PC as well for some great power related info and proper shut down capabilities. Buy it, use it, love it. This UPS is a great investment, we don't install a PC for our customers without one (PS - when it does die in 2-3yrs, 90% of the time you can just buy a new battery vs buying a new UPS)

I have installed this for my main PC workstation. Once I completed the install and completely charged the battery. I then unplugged the power and I worked for another 5 minutes before saving and powering down and this unit handled my external drive, monitor and tower. At the same time, I have not been forced to use this during a real power outage when I would be scrambling for a light..

only lasts a few hours after outage

Wish this product lasted for over 24 hours on the backup. My equipment is very expensive and can never be turned off and during a long power outage, this battery only lasted about 2-3 hours then shut off. Not very happy about that but otherwise does the job.
