    All the niceties are here. Plug layout in the back is such that you will be able to fit all your plugs, even those with large box attachments. USB connects on the front are extremely convenient if you place the unit in an accessible place. For those that are inclined, being able to see the power pull from your equipment and then visually see how much available time if you turn off certain pieces( monitors, speakers, peripherals ) you can get out of the batteries. But when all is said and done it's a functional UPS that does what it is supposed and will be ignored 98% of the time...... Which is as it should be. :)

    APC makes the best battery back ups. They make it straightforward in setting up and using their software to monitor and configure the battery backup. If you have a media server or a important system, highly suggest getting a battery backup that can automate shutting down your system safely without losing hardware or data in a power outage.

    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.

    I may have received a defective one. Many error codes, it would chirp loudly every time I ran the microwave, it is uncomfortablely heavy, the screen went black on day 10 and only acted as a passthrough. Returned it for a refund.
