Customer Ratings & Reviews

Top quality. Have never experienced and issues with APC backup UPS power products. The batteries are easy to replace after 5 or 6 years and it's a cost effective way to avoid recycling old units. The display is clear, bright and informative. I only wish this new generation of UPS's had the older feature of 'switched' outlets.

This is my second time buying this product. It worked so well protecting and keeping important electronics on during storms, i decided to purchase a second one for additional protecting for other rooms in the house. Very satisfied and would highly recommend.

Its a back up for power. So far so good. It has performed thus far.

A typical African man, Nigerian precisely, this is what we need! I had a reason to use it for an extended period of time when my neighborhood power failed, and I can tell you for a fact, it surpassed my expectations.

I have used Uninterruptible Power Supplies for many years. When one of the older ones failed I replaced it with the APC 1500 VA backup system. Ironically a couple of weeks later we had a power outage lasting over an hour. The UPS immediately took over and kept my electronics from crashing in the middle of anything. The device gave me ample time to make an orderly shutdown of my main computer as well continuing to support smaller devices. I am fully satisfied.

Simple setup, and so far has worked well. Have only had a few instances where we've lost power, but no interruption to the devices plugged in to it

First product did not startup, but Best Buy replaced it the same day i brought the product back with a same product. The staff was very helpful..

Purchased this to replace an older APC unit which threw a fault during a power failure. Unit sits behind my entertainment center and covers nearly all my units, It provides battery backup for a TiVo, PS4, Ethernet switch and router, and surge protection for the 65" TV, receiver and other units. Hope to get at least 5 years of service out of this before it throws a relay fault like the previous unit did.

This lead acid battery backup has protected my devices from brief power outages and it even tells you how much electricity the devices use and how long you can run them when main power fails. Great for people who have to deal with sketchy power stability; especially if you live in climates where this can be a problem at certain times of the year the year. Some of the best features revolve around its screen which gives you the battery's health and charge level, tells you how many minutes of run time to expect given the load on the battery, and it also gives you a quick way to see the pertinent information by pressing the display button. The only disappointing aspect I've run into is the fact that I can't set the display to default to the "load screen" which provides a live readout of the energy use of all the connected devices in Watts.

Honestky i wanted to get a cheaper product but im glad i bought this. Its an insurance policy for my PC incase of anything. Especially living in Miami with all the huricanes and power outages. Bight the bullet and get it if your on the fence you wont regret it.

A tech friend of mine told me about APC. So I bought a surge protector / battery backup for my PC, which at the time I didn't really know I needed. That was many years ago. The battery went dead, and I upgraded to this monster!! I'm sure many people don't understand how many times the electric in their homes have surges. Buy this!!

As someone who works with large amounts of data, having a reliable backup solution is non-negotiable. The APC Backup Machine is a solid choice for anyone looking for an efficient, user-friendly, and durable device to keep their data safe. Here’s my breakdown:

Unlike the older model I had, this can handle an FTW3 RTX 3080 TI at full power and won't give an overload error beep. It also has more outlets which finally allowed me to plug both my studio speakers allong with everything else I had. Really happy with it.

In my neighborhood, we have issues with electric going off and on. I don't have the money to buy a generator but I still work from home a few days during the week. I have bought multiple UPS so I don't drained them quickly. It is great to be able to work even if the power is off. They work so great that I have one for my tv and cable.

This battery back up pack works excellent. It came in very handy when the storms came through and allowed time for a complete shutdown before losing any work.

It gets the job done just like my last outdated APC unit. I enjoy the fact that I feel safe when the power surges or goes out all together. I have plenty of time to shut down after the fact and unplug. I can keep working for a while after a power outage but I choose to shut down in order to stretch out the battery life. Great item to own for my new PC!

Very reliable unit. I purchased 3 for my home. Lost power and I was operating for 4 hrs

I had to wait for our first blackout before i could give a proper review and now I'm ready. Recently we had a power outage and the APC worked just fine. The lights flicked off and the counter on the APC did a countdown and beeped to let us know it was working. When the power came back it recharged. That's what we wanted, that's what we got and the cost was reasonable.

Even though I returned this battery back up, it wasn’t due to any bad experience! I open the box and it was way bigger than I had anticipated. My house is not that big and where I was going to need to put it it would not have worked for me. It appears to be a very nice unit and had I hooked it up. I’m sure I would’ve been totally satisfied with it. Instead of ordering online, I will probably go into the store and look at other smaller options.

Outstanding design -- I have been using APCs for years and this is my favorite. I use it to keep my work computer, monitors and cable modem up and running even if the power blips. I have like 4 of these in my house for various "mission critical" uses.
