    I recently installed a whole home generator and wanted a backup to keep the home internet powered when the generator was powering up. This is perfect for that purpose. It was just what I was looking for.

    I got this UPS on sale. I had one a while back. I was tired of losing my internet connection whenever the power blinked off. I tested it on my own by unplugging it. My computer, modem, and monitors where still on without a problem. Then, literally the next day the power shorted out in my house for a few seconds and all of my computer stuff stayed on. This is a must have.

    Using this to plug into my internet connectivity devices. When the power goes out, I don’t have to wait forever to get online again.

    This works great! We have our router, tv, and apple box hooked up to this. We no longer have to turn everything back on when we have a blip in our electricity.

    Glad I went with the surge protector with the battery backup. Its great that WIFI stays on and does not have to reset when the electricity goes out for a bit or blinks.

    I'm glad that Best Buy carries APC battery back-up devices. I've used them for years. A customer needs to know that they do not last forever. So you need to pay attention to how old it is and watch for signs that it does not hold charge as long as it should.

    Does the job its supposed to do. I don't have much else to say aside from the fact that the review had to contain at least 50 characters

    This came in so handy during storms when our power would get knocked out. We’ve even had to use it for other things besides just in the office.

    It's very easy to setup use. For me: has enough (6) outlets. This recommended as a high quality, economically priced product ... to mainly provide better "surge protection" for the Dell computer tower & HP monitor in my home office.

    The employees at the store gave me great advice about the battery backup Surge Protector. I got it home, hooked it up, and now it is protecting my new computer. This is one of the best one on the market.

    I initially got this battery backup for my security camera system but loved it so much that I purchased another one to plug in my router and laptop. I have a generator that I can start once the power goes out but I've always worried about the initial surges and first loss of power; now with this I no longer worry about it. Easy to set up too!

    i have been buying and using ups/battery back ups for years. the latest models from apc are great. they have a new design as well as a feature that mutes the high-pitched alarm when/if you lose electricity. Although i didn't need another ups at this time, best buy's thanksgiving deal was too good to ignore, so i picked up a "backup" backup.
