Must have

on December 22, 2017

Posted by: FirstBuild

from FL

Verified Purchase:Yes

Two days after assembling a $5000 computer was a cold night. Everyone in the neighborhood cranked on their heaters for the first time of the season. The power was surging browning out and briefly blacked out. Then it was surging again coming back on. So this thing might of saved a $5000 investment and easily paid for itself many times over in just 2 days of being hooked up. Has surge and back ups. Flip the battery before attempting charging though as per the instructions. The mute on the alarm is an appreciated feature as well. An UPS is a must have and this ones form and features do quite well.

Perfect to protect electronics

on December 28, 2017

Posted by: AnonyReviewer55

from Phoenix, AZ

Verified Purchase:Yes

This Battery Backup packs enough power for all your electronics in case of power outages or surges. I use this with my video game systems, tv, cable modem and wireless router. It will give you plenty of time to get to a save point in a game and shutdown. About 15 to 20 minutes of run time with the power load I connected to the unit. I just wish there was a bit more space between the plugs.

Back up or lose it

on January 14, 2018

Verified Purchase:Yes

Great for work. I've purchased 4 of these for the company I work for and we've recently had some power outages. Thank goodness I purchased them when I did as we work a lot on spreadsheets. These babies saved us from losing our work on those spreadsheets. Definitely recommend to purchase a back up battery whether it be for work or for your home.

Great UPS

on January 26, 2018

Posted by: Tandoori

from Peoria

Verified Purchase:Yes

I have owned many UPS brands and the APC is one of the best I have owned. They last well beyond their warranty expiration dates and replacement batteries are easy to find. I have one on most of my devices at home and did not feel the APS maintenance going on outside my house.

Loud, and expired

on March 15, 2018

Posted by: bostonpc

from Boston, MA, USA

This item was purchased on sale on the bestbuy website. It was shipped to store 4 days later and brought home, only to find out that the battery within was almost 2 years old and no good. Due to this, the internal cooling fan was extremely loud when under load. The replacement I received direct from APC also had a relatively loud fan. My recommendation is to go with the 1100va model if using for home office use, as that model is much quieter. Also, make sure the inspection date is within 6 months, to make sure the battery is still good.

Thank you for taking time to review our UPS. I am sorry to hear about the issues you faced with the unit. Unfortunately the larger units do have a fan for cooling purposes that will kick in when the load is higher or the unit on battery. If you have any other issues with the unit please do not hesitate to reach out to us. We would be happy to assist you further. APC
