What a great Battery Backup. This is the one you want to buy.




This little guy has saved my bum many times. The power in my apartment up at college is very finniky; surging, undervolting and completely going off more often than one would want. It acts both as a UPS and a surge protector. The LCD on it is fantastic; I love seeing how much power is left in the battery and how much my PC is using. The additional software included is great as well!

Its a UPS which still works on the original battery after nearly 2 and a half years

Works very great! NO noise at all. It can keep my computer and my tv for 20 minutes after a blackout. And i got a Gaming computer so this APC is just awesome for the price!

Tons of capacity. Easy to use. Easy to set up. Plenty of plugs.


Great UPS. I have two of these that run a number of different PCs and servers. I have a generator now so they really only have to keep a load for a few minutes before it kicks on, but prior to that, it ran three servers for a solid 20+ minutes (probably would've lasted longer, but that was enough time for me to gracefully shut everything down)





The SMC1000C model (600w) may be sufficient for most gaming PC's. Mine is overclocked and uses more power than most so I opted for the SMC1500C (900w) model.

8 Ports, LCD Read out is fairly accurate, Rack Mountable, Good runtime at indicated 60% load.

It works as described. It has extra room to plug in transformer/adapters.



I've been using this UPS to protect my Home theater setup from the frequent power outages and surges in my neighborhood for over 2 years. I also use several other brand UPS systems throughout the house. The LCD display really makes the difference! Knowing what the power issue is has made my calls to the electric company MUCH more productive.
