    APC UPS 1000VA Battery Backup & Surge Protector, APC UPS BackUPS Pro (BX1000M)

    • The reason I didn't rate this unit 5 stars is because when there is a power outage, this unit becomes semi-noisy; and also sometimes this unit clicks loudly (maybe it's resetting some electrical setting?).Note: Vacuum cleaners will trip-off this unit and all battery backups I have, so don't connect vacuum cleaners to it - the manufacturer's user guide mentions something about this.
    • The unit is silent and I never hear it until the power goes out
    • The unit could have a catastrophic failure.
    • Unit works great, well worth the price.
    • Been a great unit so far.
    • Awesome unit
    • I have no idea about the specifics for servers, or how far it should be away from equipment to prevent feedback loop, but for home use, the unit is silent and works flawlessly.2
    • I like this unit a lot.
    • The unit looks modern and attractive, but it is HEAVY.
    • Nice compact unit for the VA rating.
    • The unit is SILENT
    • This unit is amazing
    • I think both units are outstanding but if true sinewave output is important for your application, you should choose the Tripp Lite.
    • This unit has worked very well since installation and has performed the designed function on several occasions
    • The unit makes excessive
    • That unit was a replacement for an APC I bought at a retail store which was at the end of its warranty, but the battery died
    • I presume those are attributable to a failure to set up correctly and NOT a faulty unit
    • Great unit
    • I saw several similar comments about this unit - and to be fair, analogous units from other manufacturers
    • I really like the fact that there is a digital gauge that tells you how many minutes it will support your computer unit
    • If you follow the instructions and use the easy to follow set up guidance, this is one of the easiest back-up units I have used
    • Overall, it's a great (relatively) little unit and works as advertised
    • and I highly recommend this unit as a backup device for similar functions
    • The first unit I received the LCD display was non-functional although the unit itself was working as I saw through the downloaded software
    • Compact and built to last because it weighs a ton, good power setting features all around so its solid unit.
    • This compact unit will protect your sensitive electronics from damaging power surges.
    • The difference was a couple of dollars more, but for something that could possibly last 20 years, saving a few dollars was not worth the headache of an unreliable unit or unresponsive customer service
    • Works just as I
    • n’t loose any
