    Small and lighter that the other UPS models. Fits into a small area and provides enough back up for emergency use - put one on the printer so it can finish jobs in progress if the power goes out. We like it.

    I bought this to give my Philips wakeup light a backup battery so that I wouldn't lose the time if the power went out. I've had it for 6 months so far and it's been working great!

    Replaced my old unit which finally gave up the ghost. I use this to keep power to my network. Much improved form factor than previous units, however, I think it's because the battery is not replaceable on this model.

    This works great for providing backup power to small devices such as low-end network equipment or home routers. It doesn't have a USB port for automated PC shutdown which is why I only rated it 4 out of 5 stars. If you want that option I suggest you go with a higher-end APC model. I've also used APC products for many years and they have always been very reliable.

    I have owned UPS Battery Backup Products for over 15 years, and have found them to be accurate, and highly reliable over the entire product lines that I have used, and I highly recommend APS products.

    working from home need the internet and computer to work uninterupted, this back power provides that for a short time at least. I have had power interuptions lately and this provides continues use for short durations.

    This unit works well for small computers or other equipment that doesn't require a large amount of capacity. We use it for our cable/fiber modem to prevent outages when we have brown outs or brief blackouts. However, it doesn't have AVR (Automatic Voltage Regulation) so you'll have to get a higher end model if you require that feature.

    I bought two of these to combat the constant power outages we're having in our house. I have both connected to my router, modem, and Ooma hub throughout the house. They keep things online even when the power goes out.

    This is my second unit purchased for home. The original is for the desktop computer, and this new one is for the file server and network. They both work perfectly. Build is solid. Great for the money.

    I have used APC back ups for years. They will replace the unit and reimburse you for any damages to your equipment if any occur. Works very well. Can use in a silent mode.

    We on the Outer Banks are subject to frequent, albeit brief, power interruptions, necessitating prolonged recycling of Direct TV startup. This battery obviates these nuisances, promoting domestic tranquility.

    SET UP AND INSTALLATION WAS A DREAM. REMEMBER TO LET IT CHARGE FOR APPROX. 24 HOURS BEFORE USING. "DRY FIT" YOUR PLUGS BEFORE YOU MOUNT THE UNIT FOR YOU GET THE BEST LOCATIONS FOR DIFFERENT PLUG SHAPES.

    APC is the best; why buy any others. I've used others and nothing else beats a APC, and free shipping with Best Buy. These UPSs have been around a longgg long time and they'll continue to be around!

    It plugs in to the wall. You plug your computer or TV or whatever else into it. It has backup power. It's a glorified extension cord. Works just fine.

    Basic UPS

    This is a very basic UPS without many perks. CONS: There are no USB ports for power, no management ports for monitoring, and the battery does not appear to be replaceable. The battery connection is a very thin cable on the bottom of the unit, unlike most other APC devices. Power output (run time) is limited. PROS: APC made it easy to disable the audible alert (beeping) when it switches to battery power. Outlets are well spaced. This UPS was reasonably priced. Warranty is three years. I am using this to maintain power for a cable modem, access point, and a small 5 port switch. Buying this product was cheaper than a replacement battery for the APC I had performing the same role. I expect the battery to just outlast the warranty period.
