Great Value in a Battery Backup

Using this in a church up front on the stage area to power a Netgear 12 port multi-gig PoE switch and a wireless router. Got it mainly for the switch because it can take 2 to 3 minutes to re-initialize from a power fail or glitch. Since we live stream services I did not want a prolonged interruption in case of a minor power issue. All the other network gear including our cameras are PoE so the Battery Backup unit keeps them all running.
Size is nice and compact for a 450VA backup. Working great with no issues.

10/10 recommend, saw it on a YouTube video and got it, ever since my pc, xbox and monitor have been plugged in and has saved them a couple time after my house lost power like 3 or 4 times in a row, they stayed on a I just made sure to turn them off, also there’s an alarm that let’s you know if something is wrong

Battery Backup - Surge Protector - Insurance

Excellent Purchase! We had a power surge not too long ago that zapped our computer...learned an expensive lesson! Well that will not happen again! This back-up system/surge protector will definitely protect our new computer system! If the power goes out, anything plugged in will maintain power for hours! It is somewhat bigger than most surge protectors but you have to remember that there is a battery inside! And, if for some odd reason this device fails, you have an "insurance policy" built it to cover any damages caused!

I'm giving it excellent because I can't really knock it since the power hasn't gone out and I haven't experienced it's backup power. What I can say is that it's a little heavy and bulky. It's a good size to hide inside the TV cabinet. I have the modem, router, TV, cable box and two other things plugged in. They work. There is an alarm feature that is easy to deactivate. I just feel at ease knowing that if the power goes out it won't be taking down all the vital devices immediately with it.

Using it on an electric recliner chair, after a neighborhood power outage made it difficult to get out of the chair while it was fully reclined. The battery backup allows the chair to be closed so I can get out.

I have always been a fan of the CyberPoer battery backups and this one doesn't disappoint. I was looking for a smaller one to go into an IT wiring panel in a home and this worked perfectly, albeit tight.

Great value for the power

Great value, considering the sale price I got this was more power compared to others. I know they are careful about promising how much standby power time you get, but mine is powering JUST a wi-fi router and mesh network hub and I get nearly two hours out of it. Takes about 8 hours to fully recharge. We get winds that knock our power for only seconds or minutes, but this keeps things up and running!

The unit was easy to set up. I haven't had an event to test it.
The arrangement of outlets is good for a variety of power supplies (bricks). The small physical size was important to me but I recognize that 450 VA limits what I can keep working during long outages.
I'm using it to ensure my cable modem, phone circuits, and portable phone/answering machine stay on in power failures. I'm not sure how long it would support my computers and monitor so I'll only plug them in when necessary.

Nice back up battery, I plug in my desktop n monitor in the battery side n my other items in the surge protector side , gives enough time to properly shut down my PC if power outage, the battery also kicks on if power fluxes or surges so my computer doesn't go off , just needed a back up battery just long enough to turn of my PC safely .

I actually wanted a smaller unit with just 2 or 4 outlets. However, the alternatives were either incredibly complicated or too expensive. Of the reasonably priced and simple back-up systems, this is the better choice than the nearest competitor, APC. This unit fits flat and is smaller with essentially the same features. Price is better also.

does what it's supposed to do. So far so good. I used to use their major competitor's UPSs but they started having problems so I saw good reviews on CyberPower and they're good.... so far, and with a better price.

I have not tested it in an extended power failure yet. I bought it to handle small blips in power and it is doing great great for that purpose.
Size is not bad. Outlets are well spaced to handle any plug I have. I was concerned because in the picture I thought that middle section was raised and that could cause some problems plugging in larger plugs. In reality, that middle section is a depression so it works well.

I made this purchase looking for a battery back up that would not break the bank but would protect our periphals from surges which happens a lot here. The battery back up system came highly recommended and has good reviews. So far we are well please and have bought 3 more.

Solid, Basic Battery Backup

Just wanted backup for the cable router/wifi... so when the power flickers I don't have to wait 5 minutes for XFinity to start back up. This fits the bill and is small enough/light enough to allow for different placement options while taking advantage of all the outlets.
If you are looking for surge suppression over for the cable/coaxial itself, you'll need to step up to the next model.
You'll need to charge it before using it... which is probably better for the environment and the battery life than having it charged before it left the factory.
