I have used APC products in the past and find this one much better. Seems well made, functioned out of the box.

Needed something better than your standard UPS surge protection for my eGPU and Laptop. When laptop not in use can switch off power to both devices. Works as intended.

Used this recently. It lasted for about 2.5 hours running my Asus RT66U, Arlo Security Cameras, and my Motorola Cable modem. Keeping my communication and security systems up.

mounted to the wall easily. everything works as expected

I have several UPS's in my house. I use them for computers, entertainment units, and a pellet smoker. The largest one I had before was the APC 1200. This unit is shorter, longer and just as heavy. The big difference is the battery replacement was so easy, that is enough to recommend using this unit. The LED display is really nice, similar to what you can see on the power chute software, but at just a touch of the button, and you wont need a computer. The software has useful information, self tests, updates and allows settings to turn off power when unattended. The top front of the unit has buttons are white LED's, which allows them to be seen earlier against the black case. The three buttons are on/off, mute and information. The back has five outlets for surge protection only, and five for battery backup and surge. The reset button is easy to get to, and the building wire fault is easy to see.

-strong construction, doesn't look cheaply made like most -comes with block off plugs for plugs not used, to me that says a lot

Does it's job. Works with my FreeNAS system to gracefully power down when the power goes out. Smaller than some of the older UPS systems I've owned. Very nice LCD display with measurements such as voltage, run time, and power output (see other thoughts). LCD can be activated for a few seconds at a time by pressing a button, or locked on so it stays on all the time.

Able to run my gaming computer at max potential with my monitor for 3 minutes or more, enough to withstand a electric blink.

My last APC purchase was many years ago and that unit lasted way past the rated replacement date. So when I went shopping they were my first choice. I hope the new builds are as good as quality as the one I had before. The new one is a larger unit and the nice feature I like is that I can see how many watts are being drawn when I plug something in so this device is also being used as a watt meter at times. A few dollars I've always meant to spend on a watt meter no longer needing to be spent. The other feature I like compared to my older unit is that I can turn off beeps. I don't want a noise telling me the power is out when I'll already know that has happened.


- Great packaging, fast delivery.

Fast shipping, works well so far


I can plug this into the wall, and then plug other stuff into this! And it works!


Bought three xs 1500 4 years ago. 2 new and 1 used. The used went dead but other two were still going although i could tell they they were not as strong anymore. Didn't intend to replace all three in one month but at this price i couldn't resit. 4 years of service was great. Hoping for 4 more. Excellent product. Saved me many times.

Works great


Pros: * form factor allows under table mounting of UPS with great access to outlets and on/off switch * the CPS USB controls available via USB interface works with many devices out of the box without additional software * wide variety of Windows/MacOS/Linux hosts supported, most commercial NAS devices (QNAP, Synology), even a Raspberry Pi 3 or 4!

The plugs are aligned in such a way, that most wall-warts can be used with it, without one crowding out the other. I use this to power my guitar stomp boxes in my home studio. Each stomp-box has their own wall-wart/converter. I am able to run 6 pedals with no crowding, with 2 slots to spare. The Belkin is also built really well, with a long (8'), thick power cord. It is a heavy duty strip. The built-in 2500 joule' surge suppressor is more than adequate for most needs as well, offering good protection for any electronics plugged into the strip. I expect years of trouble-free use.
