    A great way to keep a computer from crashing when you get hiccups in the power supplied by the local electric utility. Of course you need to be present to shutdown said computer - should you encounter a longer power outage.

    Great UPS

    Great UPS. APC did a good job designing this unit with the angled screen and large battery door that makes servicing these units a breeze. Swapping batteries in this unit takes a lot less time than some of their older models with battery doors on the bottom of the unit, or behind a metal plate that is awkward to remove to get to the batteries. The auto-off function on the LCD screen is nice, and should hopefully make the screen last many years.

    Works great. Plenty of inputs and does what it says. I have already had a power outage since i purchased this and it held up nicely. It was recognized by my NAS and triggered its internal power down when on battery load as it should.

    Plenty of power for a workstation and all the peripheral equipment. Protected our equipment even though we had a lightning strike close by. Have purchased a number of these for various equipment items and have never been disappointed.

    Within a week of the purchase this has saved me many times. With all of the videoconferencing we are doing a small power blip can be very frustrating. This battery backup surge protector will keep you going and protect unsaved files.

    Needed a second battery backup for new computer and peripherals. Have one for my other office and it has always provided enough power when the power goes out, even briefly, to keep everything running fine.

    APC makes great Back-ups!

    APC makes great Back-ups. This one can be used for homes and small businesses. APC also makes more significant Back-ups for medium to large businesses, and for special equipment. They are a great value for the money, and they come in handy for power outages like black and brown outs. CyberPower also makes very nice units, usually selling for a little less cost. When you find the APC Back-ups on sale, that is the time to replace your old units.

    So far this battery backup has worked very well. It has been tested multiple times by storms and other random power outages. It always kicks on quickly and keeps my devices running until the power comes back on. Knocking off 1 star for the slight whine it produces. Not enough to really fuss about, but its there and can be heard when the room is quiet.
