Customer Ratings & Reviews

I did calculations for a 1/3 hp sump pump and discovered that it equals 250 watts and a peak would be anywhere from 375-600 Watts. When I got home I was happy to discover that my calculation was correct in that the approximately 600 W on start up each time was easily covered by this machine. I would estimate that it would run at least 20 cycles of at least 30 seconds. At this price point I’d be very happy with that in emergency in my basement. I am somewhat disappointed that this Serial number that begins with 3B has the expected chirping sound. I discovered that it only happens when the display is showing. Since I have no intention of keeping display on all the time it is of no consequence to me. That is why I gave it four stars and not less. That being said I would highly recommend checking the serial number and getting the 4B rather than the 3B if this is important to you.

Pretty stable unit... only issue I have is it once in awhile starts beeping with no power interruption which requires the device get turned off then on again. Does the job, though!

APC is the leader in UPS. I have bought a bunch of different brands in the past but usually come back to APC. The quality and features are well worth the slightly higher cost. I like that this one has 6 battery backup outlets which is critical since I run triple monitors. This has more then enough capacity for my workstation. A nice touch is the built in USB and USB-C charging ports, this is really convenient to charge up my phone recharge my keyboard and mouse. The one thing I would like to see is for the USB-C port to be power delivery so I can charge my laptop. it is only a 15W total output for the two USB ports.

Does the trick against Florida electricity. Helps against the dips when large appliances are turned on - and of course against power outages!

Setting up a Backup UPS is very easily done with this model and gives peace of mind when you place your Modem and computer equipment on it to ensure both are protected from surges as well. Just connect the battery and you are ready to go after your devices are attached. It shows your outlet voltage and the duration of the power available. Place the warranty information with your date of service to remind you when you may need to replace the unit or the APC battery when it is needed in the future. I use APC because it is easy to service battery replacement as well.

I use this UPS to keep two desktop computers, the cable modem (Internet connection) and an ASUS router+2nd hub (for home network devices) online and protected from brownouts or blackouts. Never had any problems with my systems because of the UPS.

I bought this to provide much better backup life than my other backup solution which was hopeless. It did not disappoint and kept my internet router up and running during our last power failure which lasted about two hours.

This is a powerhouse unit for anyone running a high-wattage PC or a complex home office. With 900W of actual power capacity, it can handle a modern gaming PC and twin monitors with ease. However, because it uses a Simulated Sine Wave, enthusiasts with sensitive audio equipment or servers with sensitive Active PFC power supplies might prefer Pure Sine Wave version.

I have 2 of these already, this is the third. The oldest is over 10 years old and has never had a problem. I pretty much run a whole network off of each: computer, TV, NAS drives, router, printer. Gives enough time to do a proper shutdown, and connects to the computer via USB so your computer can know to shutdown if you're not there.

It's only been connected for about a week but so far it's working well. We have random power outages over the summer, so this is much needed. Very easy to set up. I love all of the extra outlets and especially the outlets for oversized plugs. I like the power indicator, so I know it's always on. My last UBS had shut itself off and I didn't know. Computer crashed (screwing up my main drive when the power suddenly dropped). I still need to try the Powerchute software features next.

I have had a few of these tower UPS units over the past decade or so. The only problem I ever had was a power relay on the UPS that this UPS replaced. After about 10 years, that's ok. And that UPS still works, just complains once and a while. There are plenty of outlets, good power display, and I expect to get good life from the battery. So I continue to be happy with APC

Provides an estimate of runtime available on battery based on amount of current being drawn. When the battery runtime drops, a safe automated shutdown is provided by the PowerChute software. Perfect solution to protect against surges, brownouts, and power outages.

Does what it is supposed to. Needed a bigger battery backup for my gaming PC. This one has more than enough headroom to power my 6800xt, 12600k, and 2 monitors. Gives me plenty of time to power down in the event of an outage. The screen on the front is nice as you can cycle through displaying current wattage use, time remaining on battery power, etc...

APC battery backups are the best. I use this brand to protect all my equipment without fail for almost 20 years. The LCD display is worth the extra few dollars for this product and is a nice addition for when your computer is off without Powerchute running.

Sturdy, powerful, quiet, lots of outlets & ports and affordable! What more could you ask for? This unit replaced an older, smaller UPS and gives me two additional battery-backed outlets in a similar sized enclosure.

Working great. Good backup. Loving it. The best buy team were very supportive while picking up and this was packed supperbly

Things amazing, works well easy to set up, just don't forget your credentials, it's not very easy recovering it.

works as intended. IT connected it to our server with no issues.

This is the second ups of this brand I have bought. First one is still fully functional, highly recommended.

Mid-tier but reliable power supply. No fault to product as only issues are clearly noted in description (heavy/cumbersome, etc). Has held up well over last two years and helped power refrigerator during power outage.
