    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.

    Keeps Lift Chair operable during power outage

    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.

    I installed this to provide uninterrupted power and surge protection to our flat screen and cable box and cordless phone base. The power grid in our area has become more vulnerable to outages and brown outs. This device will not only protect these devices from being damaged by power spikes, it also allows us to use the tv and phone during an outage. Great investment in home protection.

    We bought these to protect our desktop and as a battery backup for my CPAP machine at night. The power in our neighborhood would go out every time the wind blows, so these came in really handy. Nothing you need to do except plug everything in!

    This is real great to protect my computer which has a lot of important data on it. The system is small so the computer, monitor and peripherals are all protected. I label the date of purchase so I can remember to change the battery after a number of years.

    We occasionally have blips of power just long enough to knock out wifi out. This little jewel does the trick. No more problems when the power blinks on and off. Have not had a long outage since purchasing to test its longevity but so far works great on short hits. The price was great for this item. Easy to set up, just plug it in. Outlets are labeled to show which provide what feature.

    APC-Gack-UPS are all really good. I have been using them for my computers for many years and never had any problems with them. This one only has our water softiner on it and so far through two outages it has kept the water softiner going instead of it stopping and we have to go to the cellar, I mean cellar which is a door in the floor not just steps to get to it.

    This was a great choice for a battery backup for my Home phone and router. It has worked great during out power outages, which is often. It has a bright green light that flashes when in use during the outages. It's easily placed on a bookshelf out of the way.

    to put it simply this product does what it says it has around 200 watts of power which is great for my Wi-Fi modem this is great because I'm trying to do classes and I don't get kicked out when I'm on my laptop, although I will probably be buying a bigger one. in terms of features, it's pretty basic when the power goes out makes a buzzing sound so you know it's working, it also has two sets plug one that takes a battery and one that doesn't which is nice
