    Bought because I connect multiple devices on a very old electrical system. It helps protect them when I have power surges. Highly recommend picking one these up if you want to make sure your devices stay safe.

    We paid a little extra and got more than what we needed which is better than paying a little less and then wishing we had a little bit more.

    I am giving this five stars because there is nothing bad to say about it. It works, good quality, and has a replaceable battery. Screen shows time left on charge, and is plenty to protect my pc from power outages. (I am not using this in any industrial setting, my power goes out quite often and this is just an extra layer to protect my pc.) I would recommend this.

    Doubled size of capacity. Luckily had enough plug in, but a couple more would have been nice. Would buy again if I need one.

    Great product to protect your valuable electronics. Use it for my gaming laptop, tv, surround sound system. The auto voltage regulator, (avr), makes sure your equipment is getting 120v when your voltage dips at times.

    So far this has been as advertised. You don't appreciate what you have until you need it. I had used some of the other ones that Best Buy sells and they did not last through two different outages. APC is THE name in back up power, should have gone with them in the first place.

    Easy to set up. Seems to be working fine. Haven't had any power outages while using the computer. I would give it a 5 star if the available plugs were a bit farther apart. Some items I needed to plug in have a larger plug and had to be plugged into none backup receptacles. Otherwise a sturdy unit. that I can replace the battery as needed in the future.

    Up graded to this one. Quality name & products. Last one lasted more than 7 years in a harsh environment. If you're looking to protect your tech then this is the product/manufacture you need.

    High quality piece. Easy to setup and operate. Be sure to read the instructions because you need to take the battery out and connect it before operating the unit.

    I own several APC backup units. We get lots of thunderstorms, along with flickers and outright failures every year. These excellent units keep us up and running instead of watching candles burn.

    Excellent battery backups. The place of work does not have the best electrical in the building, and I can't tell you how many times these APCs have saved our lives during an unexpected outage. The APCs will give you plenty of time to save your work.
