Bought this for my entertainment center. Had a power outage a week later and was very happy with the runtime it provided for my electronics.

I own 2 of these units and love them. I have had to replace the battery on my old unit but it keep right on working. The only bad point about this unit is that the plug ins are too close together. With newer phones and computers coming with bigger plug ins they could have made them wider.

It storms hard and often in my neighborhood, so having my monitor and PC hooked into this allows me to work and play worry-free; the power backup has me covered.

This is my third unit I have bought. An outstanding APC is critical in protecting your high $$ electronics. I like how you can mute the alarm during a power outage.

This was a great purchase to replace an older unit. For only a few dollars more than it would have cost to replace the battery. And this unit has more performance in a smaller package.

We had a blackout and the UPS kept the PC safe. We had enough time to save the work progress and turn off the computer. At this price, it is doing a great job.

Great UPS for home networking and small appliances. I have two of these in my house. One for our router, cable modem, etc., and I have one for our electric reclining chairs.

We recently had a series of power outages, some lasting several minutes, but the computer, monitor and printer stayed up and running through all of them.
Note, this does not have a USB computer connection, so you have to manually shut down the computer if the back up runs low on power.

Bought this for my modem & VOIP since Xfinity charges extra for a backup battery. Works fine, no worry now about losing internet and phone when the power goes out.

Purchased this on sale as a replacement. This is smaller than the previous unit but has a clean look. I use it for a small desktop and LCD monitor and it has no problem handling them.

I have owned APC Backup power systems before for computers and printers. This one is for our new Sony Smart 4K TV to help eliminate the power spikes. It works well and I highly recommend.

This battery gives you the time you need to save your data if you have a power failure, and prevents power surges and dips from harming your data so you can shut down your computer safely.

Great UPS for simple computer setups, or if you want to back up some A/V components like DVR's, from short power outages or glitches.

I decided to get backup battery after encountered power outage twice in a day while there was thunderstorm few months ago. I set up this battery with my Dell all-in-one desktop about a month. I haven't encountered any power shortage so far but the unit seems to be working fine. Give me a piece of mind.

The backup system couldn't be easier to install. It worked perfectly.
My only surprise was it's size. It was much too large to fit in the space behind my equipment so I had to construct a separate shelf for it.
I have experienced one power failure and it worked like a charm.

Not bad for the price; have three of these in the house. Good for when storms are in the area that cause a brown out. Gives you time to safely shut down computers/video game consoles.
