    This APC was needed to fit a specific space and to serve as a back to a large piece of tech. It works great and has done its job in keeping power during power surges. I will be buying this again.

    Had to turn my power off in the home. This unit kept both my computers up and running for at least 10 minutes. Gave me time to shut them down properly.

    I have gone through two of these units, each of which exhibited the same problem. I deployed my UPS with my computer equipment. Each time, it ran fine for the day. When I turned the UPS off for the night, I was unable to turn it back on the next morning. I returned the first unit for an exchange. For the second unit, I contacted APC's tech support who was able to resolve my complaint to my satisfaction. Too much work to get a satisfactory unit.

    This unit was purchased to replace an older APC. It has been great so far. It has protected several PCs from power outages and surges without incident.

    I have battery backup with AVR on all my electronics. It protects from brown outs and surges i receive from time to time. The last one fried my Netgear R6300 router so I bought this to protect my new tv and new router in the living room. With the new led tv i should have about 2.5 hours of tv to watch if the power goes out now with this size BBU.
