    Just picked this up to replace our old unit. Newer, more features, easy plug and play! As long as it lasts like the other one did, we'll be all set!

    The APC 1500VA UPS provides backup power to my 15" MacBook Pro, 32" 4K monitor, OWC Thunderbolt 3 Dock, and attached peripherals. This prevents chaos that transient power outages can cause for external storage devices. When a more extended outage comes along, the UPS allows a graceful shut down for the monitor and external storage while the MacBook can continue on its own battery. The older, lower capacity UPS this unit replaced provides backup power for the modem, router, giga-bit switch, network file server, and network disk drives.

    Bought this to protect my network and home theater equipment from a power spike/power outage which happens from time to time here in Florida. So far, so good. What I really like about it is the cable in and out capability which protects my network modem from a cable line spike. Set up was pretty easy.
