    APC Back-UPS Battery Backup & Surge Protector (BE750G)

    • This one is still going strong!The original unit from 2007 died last month - nearly 10 years when the Eatons we have been buying are lasting no longer than 4 years - if that much!This company will be going back to APC for all our future UPS needs.
    • This unit seems to work well, as I no longer suffer lockups of the blue ray player or loss of streamed video over the internet.
    • I really like this unit

    • APC usually has great units
    • I would like a couple more outlets on the backup power but the bigger unit is a little too pricey for me
    • I will say that customer service was exceptionally helpful; both in replacing the old unit and in recommending a unit that produces a better sine wave.
    • and she had no problems installing this slightly bigger, significantly more powerful unit on her 24" iMac desktop, laser printer (surges only) and backup (Time Machine
    • I got this one for $50 delivered great deal and a good solid unit.
    • Unit was then useless.
    • This is a reliable unit
    • Works great nice unit
    • (It's possible that an APC brand battery would be recognized better but at that price I might as well buy a brand new unit).
    • These units have the added capability of removing the annoying recurring beep you normally get when a power outage occurs, that feature is not available on the Tripplite unit.

    • The second unit will not work with a Dell XPS 9000 computer
    • This unit worked for a little over 3 months and then went into overload alarm mode.
    • This unit has a very loud and very frequent alarm that seems to go off for no apparent reason
    • The first unit was completely dead on arrival.
    • We build computers and trust and recommend this unit for most builds
    • I'm sure this is a good unit
    • The unit also provides surge protection to a phone line, which matters when you have DSL, and live in a thunderstorm-prone area
    • On the APC website many people say that APC units are very picky about the quality of the supply voltage
    • The unit worked well until it died
    • However, the unit itself seemed to work fine.
    • APC has been doing these long enough that they realize the consumer wants a reliable, well crafted, and brilliantly designed unit that works
    • Very nice unit.
    • My unit worked perfectly out of the box and was easy to set up
    • This is a great unit.
    • I have had units like this and they all have worked flawlessly for more than 5 years.
    • Capable UPS unit, suited to a full-size desktop computer that draws extra voltage when it comes under load for gaming/video/AutoCAD work
    • This is second unit I own and they both work great except they put the outlets to close together
    • Recommend this unit.
    • Unit was bad
    • I submitted an RMA request explaining what happened after what appeared to be a fault with the unit, and within a day, they had a new unit ready to ship at no expense - I didn't even have to ask for it
    • I think this is a field where someone could move in and make a killing with a reliable unit at a reasonable price.
    • These units offer stable, affordable, power protection and battery backup
    • Hope this helps someone!UPDATE: 12 Oct., 2017:It's been almost 2 years since this unit went into service and it has protected the Synology NAS across many many short outages and signaled a orderly shutdown before battery exhaustion on longer ones
    • A really nice unit at a great price, currently in service without the software install
    • The first unit was defective and was replaced
    • This unit is perfect for my needs and I know I can rely on Amazon and their retailers for good service.
    • Good unit.
    • I tested the unit by turning off the circuit breaker which powered my computer and accessories and the system worked as specified.
    • The replacement batteries are almost as expensive as a new unit
    • I use video surveillance security cameras connected to my laptop and don't worry about power failures as this unit will quickly switch on once the power fails and is estimated to provide juice (110v) through its backup battery system for the next 45 minutes, depending on what's hooked up to it.
    • I purchased this unit to work on a workstation computer in a hotel office environment in a foreign country.
    • This unit has performed well in an over-weekend test I performed, but it is larger and heavier than the unit it replaced
    • Those units would fail after 1.5 to 2 years and not because of the battery.
    • Mac OS X Energy Saver recognized this unit automatically via included USB cable (no Powerchute req'd)Cons:- poor documentation in box
    • The unit is still good and can be used else where, so I am not upset with the APC backup.
    • I chose it because the previous unit was reliable and worked will and the BE750G does not disappoint
    • I've had a few building power failures since I installed it and the unit has worked perfectly.
    • Nice compact unit, works as expected.
    • This unit seems to work well, as I no longer suffer lockups of the blue ray player or loss of streamed video over the internet.
