    Purchased this UPS/battery backup to protect TV, Blueray player, cable box, sound bar, etc. Very important protection against electrical spikes or brownouts for expensive equipment.

    Works excellent, does exactly what I needed it to do. Also gives PC users with an expensive setup have a piece of mind that I am protected. I also have shut the breaker off and the pc ran until i could shut it off.

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

    Worked well, tested it by unplugging with good results. Run time, watts used accurate. Some difficulty plugging into battery terminals. Needed adapters for back up outlets too close to each other.

    It works well versus the CyberPower model that I previously owned. It doesn’t beep and flake out unexpectedly. I havent performed any actual load test on it but again I’m happy with the performance.

    It’s very dependable so far (a month). The power cuts out intermittently in my area and this device allows sustained power to my desktop for uninterrupted compiling.

    Good for running all but the most extreme workstations or gaming rigs. My wife uses it for her Ryzen 5900X gaming rig, and it can ride through about 45 minutes on this backup.

    This is the perfect size for my home computer. It was easy to set up. Thus far, APC products have lasted a reasonable amount of time. The Best Buy sales rep was great!

    Great UPS for handling fluctuating power situations. My computer all of a sudden would indicate a hard drive boot problem, but once I plugged into the UPS, the problem went away.

    I like that this is smaller and can fit easily where i need it. I did not need a more powerful one and this one did the trick.

    Alway had good luck using APC products. Sometimes a bit pricy, but saves wear and tear or keep from wasting load time if used on satellite receiver.
