Works like a charm.
I tested recovery with a simulated power outage and my PC did not power down. I believe it is better to buy well over the capacity you need,
1500VA/1000W PFC Sine Wave Battery Backup Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) System; designed to support active PFC and conventional power supplies.
12 NEMA 5-15R Outlets: 6 battery backup & surge protected outlets, 6 surge protected outlets safeguard computers, workstations, and network devices; 2 USB charge ports (1 Type-A and 1 Type-C) power devices such as mobile phones and tablets.
Multifunction, Color LCD Panel: Displays immediate, detailed information on the UPS battery and power conditions; Color display alerts users to potential issues before they can affect critical equipment and cause downtime.
AUTOMATIC VOLTAGE REGULATION (AVR): Corrects minor power fluctuations without switching to battery power, thereby extending the life of the battery. 3-YEAR WARRANTY INCLUDING THE BATTERY; dollars 500,000 Connected Equipment Guarantee and FREE Power Panel Personal Edition Management Software (Download).
This is a great UPS for the money. Buy this UPS. You won't be disappointed!

Have had several of these for different projects. Usually get the 1500VA to avoid issues and it makes battery replacement (every 2-4yrs) easier since they all use the same size. Sine wave is an extra plus, but POE switch not browning out and causing issues with attached devices on the smaller 650VA initially installed is a time saver in and of itself.

As summer storms are frequent now, I wanted a UPS to protect all my entertainment electronics. I chose this Sine Wave UPS as I didn't want the risk of various components having problems with the stepped wave forms of most UPS systems. This one will carry through until my whole house generator comes online if the outage lasts more than a minute.

Fantastic - had it about 2 months and has already saved the day twice thanks to the city deciding to “work” on the powerlines on my road. Bought it because a brownout fried my motherboard. With all my normal programs running (word, excel, cad, chrome, spotify) will run for about 45 minutes and about 25-30 with a game running. Easy to sync to computer.

Easy to use. Kept modem, router, network switch, NAS, and access point running for about 5 hours in a recent power outage.
One thing to note is that this UPS cannot be turned on without AC power. I had another fully charged unit I attempted to move in a power outage, but because I turned it off, I ended up with a fully charged UPS I couldn’t use to charge devices.

I’ve had the unit about 2 weeks and tested in several times by unplugging from power. It ran quietly and stated coo during the tests.
The battery runtime seemed on track with what I expected for my setup which includes a mini pc running pfsense, a wireless router, and a passive network hub.
All devices ran smoothly while on battery power.

This UPS has already saved my computer from data loss and possibly worse. No sooner did I set this up with my new computer when the power went out, bounced back on and the out again. That is the worst case scenario for crashing computers. The sine wave UPS didn't flinch. My computer never noticed the power surge as if it never happened.

Used to power a Synology NAS. Works great. Powers for around 30 minutes and can send signal via USB to do an orderly safe shutdown if still powered by battery after x amount of time.

Great UPS so far. Zero complaints and easy to use. Love that it’s a true sine wave for better power delivery if you lose power. Have WiFi devices and security cameras hub attached to it has en estimated run time of 2 hours so plenty of time to do anything via internet if power goes out as well as still eyes on house.

Very reliable and sturdy battery backup. I use several of these at my business and they have lasted for years. They almost always (except in some extreme cases) provide enough power for my entire computer network to remain operational till the electric company can fix the outage.
Glad to hear you are getting good life and reliability out of our products! If you ever have any issues, feel free to reach out to our Tech Support team at 1-877-297-6937 and select option 1. Thank you for your review!

This UPS fits just right on my gaming table. Product has more outlets than the other brand. The type C input and standard USB provide for charging versatility. Slim design makes for convenient placement in areas where space is limited. Larger LED display. Overall, awesome product and will buy another for my living room.

This is exactly what you need to handle dodgy rural power systems. Where I live, outages happen often, and the inrush current of thing like AC, or a laser printer's fuser cause power sags that if not handled, will cause your PC lose power long enough to reset. This UPS has plenty of capacity for my loaded-up system (i9-14000K/RTX-4090), it's AVR is needed here, the pure sinewave technology is a plus, and it's price is very reasonable. 5 Stars!

I bought a prebuilt pc from Best Buy and naturally after my light went out and back up again I decided that this was a good investment. Even still when I turn on my computer it sometimes still acts funky and I have to reset it. Idk if the damage was already done or if this product isn’t working as intended. But it seems to work.
