||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I haven't had a power outage since I purchased this UPS and I only keep my alarm clock and noise machine plugged in at all times. This thing randomly shut itself off and if not for my internal clock, I would've overslept and been late for work. I turned it back on, and it shut itself off again! I did a Reddit search and apparently, this is a thing with CyberPower UPS. Highly unreliable in my experience.

Useless & annoying
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wish I could give it 0 stars. It beeps randomly, incessantly with no info on the device. Its huge and heavy for not much capacity, certainly can't support 6 things plugged in LOL. Pathetic useless paperweight. I will be returning it

Posted .Hi Enzo,
Thanks for your feedback on the CyberPower 450VA Battery Back-Up System. I’m sorry to hear it only lasted about 5 minutes with your PC, that’s understandably frustrating. This model is designed for basic systems and may not provide extended runtime for higher-powered setups.
