    Derecho, Power flickers, life saver

    I've got 3 UPS boxes with the goal of protecting my network, NAS, and computer from power flickers. This box protects the equipment my ISP provides and has worked flawlessly when we have quick power flickers. When the derecho knocked out power for over 8 hours (we were some of the lucky ones) this kept our network up for almost a half hour (I think the phone company box on the outside of the house, which I protect with this, draws a lot of power). My only complaint is the beeping alarm when it is running off battery. I've followed the instructions to the best of my ability, and can not get it to stop. If we have an outage longer than a flicker, I quickly shut down the equipment protected by the UPS and use the outlets to recharge cell phones.

    This UPS is good enough for keeping low power devices like a router or ethernet switch running during a power outage. It can't tell your PC to shutdown because there is no usb support and there's no access door to swap the battery.

    Small enough to not be obtrusive, but big enough to handle the electronics I have plugged into it. 4 back up/surge and 2 surge

    These are required if you have power blips. I work from home and protect my modem and router from these frequent disturbances.

    Got this in a Black Friday deal for the cost of two surge protectors so what's not to like? Very basic, no power chute connection or monitoring ability. Provides surge and battery protection for a MacBook and Peter usb hub
