    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    what can I say, the light is on, the alarm is off, and it is like believing in seatbelts! I just hope it will work. Priced right. Nice size and was easy to hang on the size of my desk. I like it.

    This is more streamlined than the old ones and works great. Looking forward to having it around for a long time. So happy my local Best Buy had it in stock. Always good service with helpful people in our store. Thank you.
