    APC UPS, 850VA UPS Battery Backup & Surge Protector, BE850G2 Backup Battery, 2 USB Charger Ports, Back-UPS Series Uninterruptible Power Supply Black

    • It is good to keep only sensitive equipment (e.g. computers, xbox, server) on the power + surge protection outlets because it will feed power to those longer if there are fewer pieces of equipment on it
    • Because I still need surge protection and the backup generator still needs 15 seconds to spin up and that means my network, Satellite system, etc
    • This model provides no surge protection
    • Since I plugged into the power surge protection side of the APC no more problems.
    • Bought as UPS (for my electronics) during the 30 seconds my emergency automatic generator takes to switch on following main power outage; plus as surge protection
    • On top of that I think the surge protection helps protect from the drawing too much power and prevent the circuit break to begin with
    • i bought it because it has 6 UPS Battery Backup with Surge Protection Outlets
    • Has the same surge protection and battery back-up capabilities I had in the old and larger model.
    • On mine, i have the TV, modem, FireStick and wifi power on just surge protection, and I have my desktop, xbox and other computer gear on power + surge protection
    • Used for computer surge protection, however after using a couple other plug+ins, the battery was overloaded and started beeping.
    • Old UPS still used for its surge protection.
    • There are 3 outlets (if I remember correctly) for power supply and 2 for surge protection
    • The former is good for TVs and such, because they can be simply switched off, but do need surge protection
    • After a 5.7 magnitude earthquake made us lost power for 6 hours, we bought this, an additional surge protection plus a power source for your PC
    • So I have to plug my printer into a wall jack, with no surge protection
    • n’t lose our unsaved work product.
