    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.

    Solid three years of flawless performance

    Purchased in April, 2017 and used to provide backup power to home network equipment (router and switch) and a 3-disk home server (home built, i5 and later a Ryzen 5). This unit performed flawlessly over 3 years, seamlessly providing emergency power through lightning storms, brownouts and the usual summer complete power failure. As expected, after 3 years it's now complaining it can't hold a charge. Given that, I've now swapped in a new unit, the BE425M (the collection of equipment it services has shrunk, and with it our power requirements). I've got another 3 of these for computers and network devices (like our Google Fiber Jack) throughout the house. If they all last as long as this one did, I'll continue to be impressed.

    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.
