    I’m glad I got this one because the following week we had an outage and allowed me to shutdown my computer and still have enough power to have wifi running for couple hours

    Great UPS for desktop computers. APC software provides detailed reports of power fluctuations and outages. This UPS provides steady power for up to 45 minutes of use after the power goes out. It is worth the few extra bucks to get the best!

    I like working with the helpful people who keep Best Buy on the move! Some purchases I couldn't have made without their help. I purchased just the printer I have been looking for to get my holiday photos ready to send out to my family. Having a battery backup insures my new printer and computer won't burn out.

    Recently had a very bad thunderstorm and our power kept flickering, this machine kept my machine up and running the whole time and I didn’t have to worry at all about losing work or damaging my machine. My entire setup is about 110 watts idle, and this machine reports I have about 35 minutes of battery time.

    This UPS is pretty much everything you could need for a battery backup. My unit has handled a few power losses like a champ and gives me enough time to shut down my computer and other electronics connected to it. It's got a big battery in it that lasts for quite a long time. No issues!

    I have several of these units and they have saved a lot of data during storms. I have one unit that is connected to only the MODEM and a switch to hold the Internet during a power outage. I have another connected to a Desktop PC to allow time for a shutdown. Also laptop PCs with monitors to allow shutdown.

    The unit face provides a better display than a competing Cyberpower unit. Works great right out of the box. No setup needed.

    This is the second of these I've purchased to cover my computers and home servers. Excellent, reliable and being able to monitor usage and time left on the battery is very helpful.

    Instructions were bot clear on how to connect the positive lead of the battery, but after a bit of twisting it connected. UPS does exactly as it should

    The UPS in our office went bad on a Monday and needed something right away with the same 1500VA. I found this from Best Buy and decided to get it as it was the fastest and easiest to get that day. Got the UPS and installed in our office in less than 2 hours. APC’s are also better quality than our old one.

    Plug in and it works. Sensitive, switched in. Works as well as Cyberpower unit. Cyberpower failed with AC present. Batteries are replaceable if you can find them (heavy and corrosive so not cheap to ship). Quiet in standby and not loud when on battery, except for the alarm which you can turn off.

    Capable, reliable and fuss free. This is what you need for your computer, NVR and Modem/Router backup in the event of a power outage. Can even be configured to shut your device down prior to a complete drain.

    Replaced an old UPS of a different brand, relatively easy setup, my only issue is disconnecting the positive battery connection, I felt like i was going to break the prong right off the machine trying to disconnect it. Might be easier if you don't have neuropathy though, and you can actually feel your finger tips.

    I have used APC battery backup products for years. I purchased this one to replace one that needed a new battery because I needed something bigger and this thing is fabulous. So much so that I went out and bought a 2nd one. Highly recommend this for longevity, reliability, and protection.

    good amount of uptime for a workstation, let's you keep working through a power glitch and still have enough time to save and close if power is still off 15 minutes later.

    Worth the money, by far. I am highly confident in this beast. Some people report the beeping/chirping, but if you hook up the battery correctly that isn't an issue, as far as I know. So far love it. However, because of the battery, it is WAY heavier than you think! It has everything I need for my office!

    The lifespan of this particular brand battery back up isn’t that great. This is the third one I’ve purchased and seem to reach end of life within roughly a year or so give or take. For this price I’d expect it to last longer.
