In Battery Backup (UPS)

Better build quality compared to competition For me they last "forever" Use a standard battery form factor which quality replacements are inexpensive and readily available Configurable such as disabling beeps is nice

APC backups ROCK! We have a lot of brown outs and frequent black outs in our neighborhood. At our home, electronics grow old and happy till we decide to upgrade. We have a 4 computer network, two 64" TVs, assorted chargers, clocks, lights, CPAP machines and assorted kitchen appliances running on various APS/UPS units. EVERYTHING last longer, very efficient and very dependable. My 7 yr. old NS 1080 I bought for an intel i7 3770k game computer is now powering 2 self cleaning cat litter boxes.

Easy setup Clean looking Easy management

- Had some thunderstorms hit my area yesterday and this kept my equipment up through two quick outages. <thumbs up> - This should give me enough time to save files and exit Windows or just put the computer into Sleep mode. - Good amount of outlets. - Easy to read LCD

I liked the easy setup of the UPS. The easy readout of the UPS shows up well. I was able to quickly setup and use the UPS and the use of the menu as well as the directions are easy to read and use. The quality of the housing is durable and made well.

Works as expected. keeps my devices running long enough for temporary power outages or for me to shut things down if I need to.

My+ old one died same modlue have had good service

Easy to set up Works great

1500w / 1500VA for 24/7 protection against Maines frequent outages during the winter months. Just received and charging, super excited to use this after my APC 500W started to instantly discharge batteries during power outages thanks to a bad transformer.

- Works as advertised, supports my mid-range PC with dual monitor setup long enough to save, close my work & shutdown when outages/fluctuations occur - power supplied to my devices plugged in remains consistent & entirely uninterrupted - Has lived through over a dozen power flickers & full on outages in my small town which is notorious for frying household appliances with our terrible power company (in southern Ontario, Canada) - Alarm when wall power is lost and UPS has kicked on can be turned off/on - Alarm, when on, is not excessively loud - the word alarm makes you think it will be screaming at you but it's comparable to a microwave button beep, probably a little bit quieter - When alarm is turned off, it still makes a very audible click when kicking on due to external power being cut off, so unless you have closed headphones or are blasting music you'll probably know the power went out if you didn't have any other indicator (like you had your lights off in your room mid-day or something) and can begin shutting your stuff off

This UPS was a great solution to support networking equipment (modem, router, switch) that I installed in my basement. It has lots of outlets and the size of the unit was perfect for mounting on the network wall panel.

We have used these many time and always have good luck with them

I'm using this UPS to provide backup power to the following: "Cable Gateway" (computer modem/IP phone) network router primary desktop computer 1 display/monitor cordless phone base unit. When the UPS is in standby (on AC power) mode the Power Panel software shows the "battery capacity" @ 100% and the "remaining battery runtime" to be 37 minutes at the load level created by the equipment listed above. I've been present for two power outages since installing the UPS. Here are my observations: The first outage was just a 2-3 second dip and when I opened the (previously downloaded/installed) Power Panel software the power had already returned. The software indicated that the "battery capacity" was 91% and the "remaining battery runtime" was 31 minutes. The 2nd outage lasted about 4 to 5 minutes. This time I opened the Power Panel software while the power was out and was observing the "current status" screen when the power came back on. When the power was restored the software indicated that the "battery capacity" was 73% and the "remaining battery runtime" was 21 minutes. These readings indicate that the battery discharges faster than one would expect based on the information shown when the UPS is "fully charged " and receiving AC power. While based on a VERY small information sample, I think the "remaining battery runtime" figures are probably skewed to the "charitable" side and one should not expect to keep on working for very long if the power goes out but rather should save their work and shut things down in an orderly fashion. Additionally the software is designed to automatically do a controlled shut down of the computer where the Power Panel software is installed either: a ... after 5 minutes of no AC (to preserve the backup battery for subsequent outages). or b ... when the battery is 5 minutes from depletion (to keep the protected equipment working as long as possible). In summary, I'm pleased with my purchase and here's why: Typically, in my neighborhood, power outages are more like the first one I described above ... just seconds long, rather than minutes or hours. With the most recent equipment upgrade, Comcast (my internet provider) no longer provides a backup battery for the Cable Gateway unit. As a result, whenever there was even the smallest flicker in the AC the modem/phone/desktop/router would crash and reboot (a rather time consuming evolution). Installing the UPS made more sense to me than buying a $40.00 backup battery for the rented Gateway equipment. Now, instead of the modem and router and desktop and phone crashing when the AC hiccups, things just "keep on keeping on" ... a very good thing in my opinion. And, it was on sale as well. So, this purchase gets a smile from me along with a 4 or 5 star rating.

+ Size + Ready to Use out of the box + USB ports for other devices + Price

Just a great product. I was debating between this and the Tripplite. I am very happy I went with APC. The product is very well made and the cloud as well as local interface to the unit is excellent. I was worried before delivery about given its short chassis how it would handle in the rack using only the front rails and the came up with a really nice brace for under the unit that fits securely and easily handles the weight of the unit. It is also dead silent which for me is a must as it is within my office and quiet matters.

Great UPS. Huge advantage is having many outlets for the battery backup. Has been powering a router, modem, and POE switch with no problems. Survived 2 power outages and worked excellently!

I have bought many from this family of online UPS, and in various sizes. They work well, and I have not had any negative issues.
