    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

    We recently had a series of power outages, some lasting several minutes, but the computer, monitor and printer stayed up and running through all of them. Note, this does not have a USB computer connection, so you have to manually shut down the computer if the back up runs low on power.

    Works great, easy to install. Complete unit was priced competitively with battery replacement cost on other models.

    This APC 450VA battery back-up is ideal for not only surge protection but will give you plenty of time to save your work and shut down your computer safely.

    I decided to get backup battery after encountered power outage twice in a day while there was thunderstorm few months ago. I set up this battery with my Dell all-in-one desktop about a month. I haven't encountered any power shortage so far but the unit seems to be working fine. Give me a piece of mind.

    Wanted some power security for electronics when a black-out or outage rolled through. Don't expect to power my stuff forever, just long enough to do a proper shutdown.

    Does the job. You CAN turn off the beeping if power loss accords. Great feature for use in a bed room so you do not hear it go up and down in the middle of the night.

    If you have a nice piece of equipment you need this not only for the surge protection, but for the consistency of it as well.

    we have pretty regular power blips, and this small device is very helpful in both protecting small devices and from the chore of resetting them also.

    The backup system couldn't be easier to install. It worked perfectly. My only surprise was it's size. It was much too large to fit in the space behind my equipment so I had to construct a separate shelf for it. I have experienced one power failure and it worked like a charm.

    We bought this because our wi-fi router goes offline whenever we get a power outage or blip, and dependent stuff doesn’t work ‘til a reset. So far so good.

    A small and inexpensive computer battery backup, but this thing can go for about 20 minutes when the power goes out, small but effective, very pleased!

    Battery backup, and protection works perfect for when power flickers during storms and such. Don't loose work, and protects our electronics during surges.

    Bought it for a Point of Sale system to run a small printer if the power goes out. Small with a low profile which tucked behind printer nicely. Hopefully we won't ever need it!

    A must for everyone, these days. Save your gear, keep Wi-Fi going during the storm to stay informed, and a time buffer for security cameras during the outage.

    Older versions required a somewhat dangerous connection to a live terminal. This version simply required use of a switch. No sparks! Major improvement.

    Lost time due to a faulty UPS and needed a replacement ASAP. Nothing special about this one, but it’s already saved me a few times. Well worth it!
