Our cable company recommended we back up our wi fi router with a surge protector. This one is reasonably priced and seems to do the job well. It’s also easy to setup and provides back up power if needed.

Perfect to go along side a lift-chair! When the power goes out, my disabled sister is no longer stuck in her lift chair. And there are plenty extra plugs for charging her phone, and keeping a light on for her to safely navigate to another room.

New and improved. Longer batter life and if you wish set for quieter alerts. Relatively inexpensive. Good to have with all these blackouts.

Power went out just this morning and I didn't know it until the internet went dead. I was able to save what I was doing before shutting everything down. The only up shot was the four clocks around the house that I had to reset. The unit did its job.

Very good product I have three of them the oldest one I purchase at 2016 and it last me six years. In one day just start beeping. The issue was bad internal battery. I took it apart and look at the model number of internal battery and order the same one online cost me $23. I install it by myself and it working again. It’s a great product. I highly recommend it to get one to protect Electronics

This product is so far performing very well. We have one major objection to this purchase. We ordered two of these on a sale and only one arrived from Best Buy. The other was on its way until Best Buy returned and refunded the second one. When we checked back the cost had gone up. Pleased with the product but disappointed with the supplier.

When my old UPS battery went out, I determined that replacing it with a new unit was more cost-effective than replacing the battery in my old unit. I mainly needed a small unit that could provide clean power to my laptop, external monitor, and some other peripherals, so I didn't need a real high capacity. This unit provided 4 battery-backed outlets and 2 surge-protected outlets which met my needs. The outlets are spaced far enough apart that even plugs with large blocks fit without covering up other outlets.

Shocking Letdown from APC : o

I've been buying APC battery backup units for 20 YEARS with good satisfaction until now. This unit was installed for my sister after her previous APC died in service. I could NOT believe my eyes with some of the cutbacks in this model. First, there is NO USB port to communicate with the PC tower. When left unattended, this unit will NOT be able to do a safe automated shutdown during a power outage! Unbelievable disappointment! Also, this is the first APC I bought with NO DOOR to simply replace the battery when the expected 3-5 years lifespan ends. Perhaps someone can fully disassemble this unit to replace the battery, but that is just awful compared to prior APC units. If this is on sale and you can live with those cutbacks, go for it. I'll now be looking at feature sets FAR more closely for any future battery purchases. Finally, there are 4 battery protected outlets well-spaced, and 2 surge only outlets too close for even the smallest of adapter blocks.
