Great Product
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great product. Had my first power outage with this (literally power still down), it's been down for 6 hours now with no estimated time to come up and this kept all my gaming consoles, and tv safe until I turned them off. You can also change the colors on it, which is neat.

||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far it has been great. We will see how it holds up long term. I like that the back is illuminated and that I can see the real time wattage draw.

Solid UPS with some limitations
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The product is significantly larger than expected and extremely heavy. No instructions as to how to set it up. The plugs in the back are quite close so if planning to use it with adopters, some of the other plugs might be covered.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought a few of these at Black Friday. Reasonably priced on sale and always wanted to test out having backup power on our two main computers as well as network hardware so power loss to home would give us some time to complete work in process and not lose work. We will see how this goes but we are ready.

Premium Backup Power and Protection
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Premium quality UPS with a pure sinewave.

||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This device gives off extremely toxic smelling fumes while it bakes, so the only way I got it to stop cooking and smelling terrible was, to put it through a couple fifty percent drawdowns on the battery.Where it had to generate heat and cook off the chemical smell with my windows open.After doing that a couple times it finally got to the point where I could bear the smell.

Had to return it after it damaged other equipment
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I may have gotten a fluke, but my experience with this unit was not good. I bought it to protect my equipment, but after plugging some of my devices into the back of the unit, I ran into a serious problem. A few of the outlets became stuck, and I could not unplug my other equipment normally. That ended up physically damaging some of my gear, which was the opposite of what I bought this product for. I liked the idea of the features, especially the pure sine wave output, multiple outlets, USB ports, and the gaming-focused design. Unfortunately, none of that mattered once I ran into the outlet issue. Because of that experience, I had to return it. This may have been a defective unit, but based on what happened, I cannot recommend it.

Peace of mind
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After putting together a rather expensive PC build, I wanted to make sure to protect my investment. This UPS fits the bill with plenty of surge and battery plugs. I can customize the display to show what information I want along with RGB displays if you desire. I have not used the software that can shut down your PC for you since I only have my PC on when I am present.

Clean power signal and great backup
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this to regulate power supply going to my pc as I was getting interference to microphone set up. It cleared that problem and has around 30 min back up to be able to finish what I'm doing and shut everything down safely.

A Powerhouse of a UPS
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This thing is an absolute beast. I have my entire entertainment setup using this and I have zero complaints. It’s fairly easy to set up and everything is labeled properly for users to know what plugs receive battery backup + surge protection vs only surge protection. I love the lighting in the rear to assist in viewing plugs and ports. It’s great!

Finally something that will support my PC
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Supports my 5090 rig even at high % usage. All of the previous UPS would alert a fault upon game launch. This holds even when moving other peripherals to battery vs on surge only. Worth the investment on any gaming PC.
