Roku requires a credit card to even activate this thing which is NOT stated on the package and my intended use did not include online purchases so no one gets that info. It would not stream from one room to the next, my smart tv has no problem doing this. It was too large to fit behind the set I wanted to use it on due to the placement of the hdmi connectors. Had a short cable or right angle adapter been included this would not have been an issue! This purchase was a total waste of time. Search the reviews based on lowest first you will be enlightened I wish I done this prior to buying and having to return this piece of junk.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: nothing
What's not so great: everything
I bought this to replace a BX1500LCD APC backup unit that worked perfectly for 6 years until the battery finally died last month. I went to best buy and purchased the APC - Back-UPS XS 1500 VA Tower UPS. Went home hooked it up everything was good for two weeks then it started acting strange, the fan coming on and off. This morning at 5:00 am I wake up to beeping noises and battery dead on the display. I unhooked it to bring it back and noticed something has oozed out of the side of it (possibly acid?). There are other reviews here that relate similar battery dead issues within a short time after purchase. NEVER AGAIN WILL I PURCHASE AN APC PRODUCT!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

How much is replacement battery for APC Model BX1500?

The replacement batteries from APC are over half the cost of the unit with shipping, "they are heavy" but I never got that far mine burned up after 3 weeks Back to BB I am using my old one as strictly a surge suppressor now I just cancel the battery dead warning after a power failure when I restart. I may get a deep cycle 12V marine battery and put it in a battery box to regain backup capabilities. There are videos on Youtube that show you how to do this.
