Bought this to keep my servers up and running during storm busts that we frequently get in our area. Have not disappointed me yet. Would buy again.

Work in IT and have been exposed to APC devices most of my career. This device operates as expected as long as used within its design specs. I have had no problems with the two of them I bought. They turn immediately when there is a power disruption. These are no-frills units that work as expected.

APC products have been a great source of power backup and surge protection. I have used them for years with few issues until they finally die. Will purchase them in the future.

I usually go with APC all the time when purchasing a UPS for myself or customers. I like the new design because it's upright versus flat on the floor which takes up less space.

If all you need is a low wattage UPS, this is the one to get. I love how the plugs are designed. Takes up way less space than the ones that lay flat. APC is high quality as well.

Insurance Policy

I find anything behind a battery back up seems to stay working. With the late summer storms we have been having this is a must. Kind of like an insurance policy.

I purchased this battery backup to protect my sewing machine in Costa Rica where the electricity fluctuates. I have used it for only a month and has worked great so far.

I've had this for a while and it's been really helpful when the power goes out so I have time to save things or check the weather for how bad a storm may be in the area. There is also space for large plugs and normal plugs so it's possible to make use of all outlets.

A UPS Backup is a must in the area of the country we live in. I have tried several most more expensive than this brand but none work as well. Highly recommend

Good Small Battery

This is a good battery to use in your home or small office. This is good for keeping your computing hardware running during a storm with small brownouts and power surges. This battery is not going to keep you running long during a full power outage. You can run long enough to shutdown safely.

We use these for computer backup in our office, in case the power goes out, we have some time to finish what we were doing.

Works for PC

I was a little worried that the new standup design of the UPS would not work as well under my desk but I found I liked that it could be against the baseboard and not take as much space under the desk. The 450va will keep my PC running during the occasional power fluxes we get here.

I work remotely and have my host on this back up. Power went out as a result of Hurricane Michael while I was on the road. 4 hour battery life kept me working.

Bought to add additional outlets and protection for electronic devises; the size is excellent. It is able to fit into a small area and provide the needed outlets.

For $40 for a UPS you can't really go wrong.

This was enough to cover my 850w PC, two 27' Dell monitors, my modem and router for about 20 minutes. Enough time to shut everything down to prevent damage.

Our work computers kept getting fried because the power goes on and off at the office thanks to nearby construction. Bought this to ensure nothing breaks and after a few months it works as needed

I have a love/hate relationship with battery back-ups because they're mostly clunky, ugly and noisy. But this one is none of those things! It was also a great deal on sale.

Best Plug Design

This unit has the plug-ins oriented in a perfect way for large plugs. Using a large plug may block another plug-in on some units but not this one. Love it
