I had enough outlets available for my needs, but I did have to alternate some of them & my power bricks are not that big (like the one I need for my Amazon Fire TV etc....)The handbook that comes with it is OK, not

Further, the outlets are not far enough apart to accommodate the large outlet transformers on typical things like routers, modems, etc

It is simple to set up, the power management system was a snap to download and install, and there are more than enough power outlets for my needs

Power cord & plug: right angle plug with the prongs rotated to allow easy access to the 2nd outlet = good

, this makes them pretty close together & so if you have any slightly larger power bricks you are plugging in, you might be forced to use every 2nd outlet & reduce the number of effective outlets you get

I'm giving this 5 stars because it's doing exactly what I wanted it to do and at an economical price

It's just as sturdy as the higher-priced models I've had, and offers all the same features

That is more than enough for most outages which last for only seconds, and I now have improved surge protection for the non UPS components

The purpose of acquiring this UPS was twofold; battery based UPS for timely PC shutdown as well as surge protection for the other components in the home entertainment console

: one row provides surge protection and battery backup, the other 4 outlets provide ONLY surge protection.

One way to increase the number of surge protected devices is to employ a power strip that has no built in surge protection

As can be observed, the unit has four UPS outlets and four surge protection outlets

Overall, so far it is looking like a good value for the money if you make sure to load it within it's capacity rating

Amazing value, UPS of this size costs twice the amount from other companies

The info on how to use it and Amazon TECH Support for Amazon Basics devices is awful

But because it is an Amazon Basic product you will depend on Amazon Tech Support

Also connects via USB to computer so a monitoring of system performance is available

This AmazonBasics UPS worked just fine for keeping my desk top computer, monitor, modem and speakers on line during several power outages within the first 3 weeks after I installed it.

One to be mounted on a wall to protect my 16-port network switch and POE power injector, the 2nd to protect a computer & monitor

Amazon, you need to do a better job with the manual for this product.

This UPS does a great job.

So far, it's done a good job keeping things running.

would appreciate assistance, or return, or exchange option.

All I wanted was a battery backup for my work's desktop computer so that when the power went out for a few seconds, I wouldn't lose all my work

This AmazonBasics UPS worked just fine for keeping my desk top computer, monitor, modem and speakers on line during several power outages within the first 3 weeks after I installed it.

I do not recommend this product for anyone planning on plugging in any medium to high wattage electronics

Great product, does what it is supposed to do and comes with a hefty component warranty when there is a failure.

As such, I wholeheartedly endorse this product and absolutely plan to purchase more of this model.

Amazing value, UPS of this size costs twice the amount from other companies

These have been just as reliable for me as the more expensive name brand UPS with more runtime to boot.

I was using this UPS to protect my security system NVR and modem during power outages.

I wish I can give them a better higher rating, best and convenient UPS unit for small office PC

Without the software, there is no power down option, which means unless you are at the computer when an outage occurs, you still get an uncontrolled shutdown as if you had no protection.

That gives me plenty of time for an orderly shutdown of the HTPC, and to turn off the TV

At this load it will last about an hour which is more than enough to do a graceful shutdown of the sever and network equipment.

The purpose of acquiring this UPS was twofold; battery based UPS for timely PC shutdown as well as surge protection for the other components in the home entertainment console

This unit is adequate for the home entertainment center application, or a simple home office with a single PC and monitor to allow the time necessary for an orderly shutdown

We had a multi hour long brownout today, during which the UPS did perform flawlessly, for the duration of it's capacity, keeping my application alive for a nice long time

Only time will tell how good it will work, and I will update if I have any issues from here on out.

so I don't loose internet every time this happens, the cable modem is a pain in the neck, takes up to five minutes to reboot and everything comes through it, internet, tv and phone, so I think it was a smart decision

Backup time exceeds the quoted time.

Since that time, I bought an APC model UPS from Amazon as a replacement, and so far it has worked flawlessly, and I might add, operates quieter than the defective AmazonBasics unit.

I charged both units, before installing my computer in it, and it didn't work when tested during power outage?

I wish I can give them a better higher rating, best and convenient UPS unit for small office PC

The limited warranty is much shorter than what some other more expensive units offer

A basic compact unit with easy set-up and no bells and whistles

When the power is interrupted, the battery takes over and emits a continuous tone

I ordered this because power in my area has been very spotty lately

Great basic backup power for computers for $20 less than the competition.

We have a lot of thunderstorm activity around here, and briefly lose power pretty regularly

It is simple to set up, the power management system was a snap to download and install, and there are more than enough power outlets for my needs

This unit does NOT automatically restart after a power outage which drains the battery.

After a power outage which drains the battery (which is less than 1 hour for this 800VA UPS), the UPS requires a person to physically press the power button on the UPS, in order to restore power to the protected plugs.

This may be the case if the battery gets completely drained, but I just tested it briefly after receiving it and it switched back to mains after power was restored, judging by the warning beeps stopping

The battery is secured simply by the two casing halves and has no screws, tape, nor glue holding it in place

However, after the full line voltage came back and the battery was depleted & had shut the unit off, it did not restart
