My old unit works fine, it just needs a new battery.

Our 2 old ones had been dated and the batteries got weak

APC builds bomb proof units and when my old home office unit died, even though I replaced the battery and it now works great again, I wanted a bigger unit to keep all my gadgets running in power outages

If you have a unit with a bad battery do not start the unit up.

It has several outlets that are only surge protected (not battery protected), which I used to hook up a fan and lamp.

Tech support initially agreed it was a battery issue, tried to sell me the WRONG battery for the unit, but fortunately I caught the difference in the picture vs. the actual unit battery

What I really love about this UPS is the replaceable battery

Setup was a snap, and once I had it fully charged, I was able to keep my cable modem, router, switch, and alarm system running for nearly an hour before the battery started gasping for air on me

If you do this every couple of months, the battery won't grow as weak as quickly so will last longer, whether you plan on purchasing a new unit or just a new replacement battery every 3 years
