Customer Ratings & Reviews

Needed a battery pack and this filled all our needs. Easy to read display and stylish looking

Wonderful purchase. Installation was breeze. I have connected my printer, iMAC, monitor speakers and audio interface. After turning off main supply, I was able to get 40 minutes of run time. LED lights add to ambience. Does not make any sound. Works well with power management of MacOS.

I bought two APC Backup Gaming Battery Backup and Surge Protectors for my work-from home setup. The battery doors are a bit fiddly to open, but it was easy to activate the battery. The unit allows you to configure the colors of the lights. Nice touch!

This backup allows me to plug in all of my important electronic devices and make sure that they are protected. You can easily see the load and battery level on the front display and you can turn on and off the lighting effects.

Display is nice but I’d love to be able to turn off that light at night. Had to watch where I put it so it doesn’t cause glare on my TV. I wouldn’t recommend it for a bedroom setup. It’s obnoxiously bright. On the other hand, it handled fantastically in my most recent power outage.

This heavy duty, backup power supply has a higher capacity than lesser models. It has two batteries inside! It also has programable RGB lighting if you are into that sort of thing.

no complains so far, I live in Texas and we occasionally have power outages that last a few seconds and this unit has probably saved my desktop pc from being fried.

Great product and works great with my PS5, PS4 Pro, Xbox Series S, Switch, Gaming PC, and 2 monitors. The indicators are fantastic and looks great with my other LED products.

We have this for our 3 computers, and it has saved us when we've had power outages every time. It gives us enough time to shut down our computers safely.

Short answer: Full sine wave battery backup unit with enough power to carry a gaming system and looks to match. The APC BackUPS Pro Gaming UPS is visually a nice departure from the stodgy old UPS that hides under your desk, adding stylish design and surprisingly useful lighting. The display panel is tilted upwards so you can actually see it without getting down on hands and knees, with multicolor accent LEDs in the front and rear. This is a 1500VA/900W unit with enough capacity to keep a high powered gaming rig going during a power out (more on that later). The rear panel has six surge and battery protected plugs, four additional surge protected plugs along with surge protection for a gigabit ethernet line and a cable line. The useful rear lighting I mentioned allows you to plug things in without fumbling for a flashlight to see which port is which! The front panel, in addition to the display, has four push button switches for power on/off, info selection, alarm mute, and lighting selection. There are also three USB charging ports that can be used whether the power is on or off. Setup was easy, remove it from the box (warning, it's a load, it tips the scales at better than 25lbs), slide the battery panel off and connect the positive (red) connector to the battery and plug it in to charge overnight. The unit is delivered with a low charge and the battery unconnected for safety reasons. I waited until the unit was fully charged before plugging stuff in, but there is really no reason other than convenience. Once everything is plugged in, the display will show the load, battery level, and your choice of event count, runtime estimate, load watts, load VA, load percentage, voltage out, frequency out, voltage in, or turn the panel off. Additionally, the front and rear lights color can be selected or can individually disabled. The display is very useful, I was able to get a good estimate of the power draw for my game system, which gave me a good idea of the probably runtime. Why do I need this on a game system? Well, in addition to gaming, that system became my exercise station during the pandemic. I have a cycling trainer and use Zwift on the system and there is nothing more annoying than getting two hours and 40 miles into a virtual ride when the whole thing drops and you lose all record of the effort. The one minor issue I have with the APC UPS is that the switches are double duty, hold for two seconds for one function, hold for six seconds for the secondary function. While the secondary functions are mostly set and forget, keep the manual handy as there is no reference on the unit and it is easy to forget. While the APC BackUPS Pro Gaming won't keep things running for days, it is a great and stylish solution for rolling blackouts and short term power disruptions. It will keep things going during brownouts and allow you to shut down cleanly during extended blackouts. The addition of charging ports is a nice touch for phone charging during extended blackouts. Highly recommended!

This power supply is great I got my PlayStation and PC on it and no overload so far it works well for my gaming setup. And this thing is a heavy boy too.

Extremely beautiful product. Usually these stuff come in black only but the white one fits nicely with my console and other furnitures. Definitely recommended.

I love this new backup power supply. I got it in white, which I think goes great with the LEDs that change colors depending on the load.

Always recommend a ups for expensive electronics and this one looks very nice as well. 10 outlets with 2 usb-a and a usb-c on the front.

GREAT purchase - we have two separate gaming machines and needed a 2nd Back-up Battery. The color choice, and options are perfect for what we needed.

Provides great backup power when needed. Power has gone out a couple times and this keeps my devices powered with no interruption!

Does what it claims to do and these models don’t seem to be exploding anymore. Pretty noticeable high-pitched coil whine from the rear of the unit, however.

Let it charge up overnight, and had everything in my office hooked up to it the next day. Looks good and doing the job so far!

Nice unit - has enough capacity to power a high wattage gaming PC i9 with 3080ti - nice that it shows capacity and draw.

I just bought this and so far so good. And I love how Best Buy price matched Amazon! Made it very easy to get it faster!
