    Works as intended. The interface you get online works as intended and almost perfectly. I dont use none of the advance tools but it works for a simple desktop setup. I live near rain everyday and this works!

    So far, so good. We'll see how it does after the first storm or power outage (of which this location has plenty). Just trying to protect an ATM that I have on-site. The APC was easy to set up and it is providing me some extra confidence to protect my electronic assets.

    This is a great tool especially if you have a standby power source. In the event you have electrical issue, you don't have to miss a beat. I use it for my modem and router. It provides surge protection as well as uninterrupted AC power. The display indicates the status of the device and the amount of time available for powering your devices.

    The battery connection

    Only a couple of weeks since my purchase, but all is well so far. I've owned APC voltage regulators before and have found them satisfactory. I'm giving it a 4* instead of a 5*, because the battery connections are inane ... I had to take pictures and send them to my AI program which then made a detailed image showing how to connect. Apparentlly there are two or more versions of battery connections for the product ... perhaps you'll get the other one.

    I haven't had a power outage since I bought it, so all I can say is that it was easy to set up and it seems to be working. Time will tell if the back-up works as described.

    I have multiple 1500 series at work so figured I would try this unit at home . It works perfectly to keep my alarm, WiFi and home automation protected from voltage anomalies and power outages.

    I bought what I thought was a larger size and it does fulfill the function of giving me time to work on my computer, wrap things up and shut if down but definitely not working for hours after the power goes out. Nice to have a backup for charging other devices when the power goes out. Note that only 4 outlets are backed-up the other four are just pass through power.
