I am using this UPS for my modem and wireless router and it has kept us online during a few blackouts now. It has also resolved a few issues that devices were having when the modem and router would lose power.

Great Power Protection

Have an office that constantly has power outages. Previous IT staff did not provide a UPS. PCs were going down constantly causing corruption to the OS. These helped while the power was out to give users time to shutdown when needed.

This APC - Back-UPS 450VA Battery Back-Up System is made by a very good company. All of my back-ups are APC. They are reliable and last a good long time. Quite cost effective for protecting from surges, spikes and lightening strikes.

Bought this because we get so many quick power outages living in the mountains and it does exactly what intended to do. We use this one for our TV and Satellite DVR and prevents a 20 minute reboot time. Would highly recommend it!

I purchased this particular model due to limited installation space. We have experienced several brief power outages recently and so far the unit has not failed to keep everything going until the power was restored.

I like APC ups, I purchased this one to charge my phones during hurricane Irma, it also helped me to use internet connection when I turned it on. It has decent battery life considering it's 450va, now I'm using it for my CCTV ip cameras.

I got this UPS to use in my car for connecting an electric neck and shoulder massager I got in Christmas, while I was driving from Houston to Miami. The UPS worked fantastic and delivered power any time I wanted to use the massager.

The APC-UPS 450VA is exactly what I was looking for. The electric power in our area fluctuates often during the hot summer months and I wanted a safe connection to a new monitor that’s ON most of the time.

I'm using it to back up my cpap machine and a couple of devices on my nightstand. During a couple of recent power "blinks" and blackouts, my devices never saw an issue, and their clocks never saw an issue.

This device was perfect during the TEXAS winter storm so I bought more. Allows you to have additional power for 30+ minutes after an outage for those last minute items

Wanted a basic battery backup for some simple devices. I use this in my media closet. Have an xfinity dvr, network switch, and Roku box connected to this APC battery backup. I need a unit that accepts a 3 prong AC plug.

I use this UPS as a backup for a FIOS ONT and a Sprint Magic Box. It was easily mounted on the wall in my HVAC room and has worked fine for the past year. If you're looking for a smaller UPS than this is a good one.

IMHO, a UPS is a required item for any station where I am connecting computers or other home/office electronic equipment. I insist on these for myself and my clients, and grab a couple whenever I see then on sale.
