Great price, quick delivery, and it's nice to have a smaller footprint than the older model I replaced (same manufacturer, but less powerful though it was very large in physical size).
Delivery was much better that expected and the product is excellent and works as it should.
Outstanding, fast delivery, easy setup and it now protects my computer perfectly
And free PRIME shipping is a nice bonus, especially for something heavy like a battery/charger/surge protector.
I was surprised to receive it in 2 days with free shipping.
little slow to ship because of the battery.

These are by far some of the best power backups on the market
So I have a useless battery backup that does not work even though all indications are it is operating normally
Not a bad battery backup
Great surge/battery backup especially in areas prone to power fluctuations.
I understand some newer PC power supplies require the more expensive APC pure sine wave backup but for me this products fits the bill but do your research before you purchase to make sure your PC power supply does not require a pure sign wave
Great product feel confident computer is sufficiently protected and unit not too big and bulky.
I downloaded the software to turn off my computer when the power fails
Working very well, and hopefully will protect my computer from blackouts
This UPS protects my stuff when the power goes out and gives me the chance to get everything shut down properly so my computer and my data don't get ruined
Highly recommend for area where the power keeps going out for split seconds and crashing computer.

Even through this dying process, which went on for two days (drove me nuts) because I couldn't figure out what the whistling was and thought it was a faulty smoke alarm as I live in an old factory loft with concrete floors, pillars, and ceilings which are 15' high, so the whistling echoed everywhere making it difficult to pin down where it was coming from

This thing's been solid as a rock, and best of all, I can disable the alarm
Alarm to alert you of a power spike is good but, can also be disabled through the software4
If you enjoy loud beeps waking up you in middle of the
You'd think APC would have figured out by now that users want to be able to keep using their computers during a power outage without listening to a constant annoying beep.
works great for 2 years so far, only issue is the beep on power outages, I unsolderd the little beeper
It does what it's supposed to, but makes an annoying BEEP BEEP BEEP whenever there's an issue with the power

Deployed to a remote site we got tired of having power issues that cause unnecessary reboots
I feel confident this unit will solve our intermittent power issues.
I also use a non pure sign wave back up on my 2011 27" iMac that has just turned 3 years old with no power issues!

Everyone should be using these on their expensive computers/monitors and hard drives

Very reliable and makes my desktop not suffer when there's a thunderstorm or high winds that causes brief power interruptions.
With summer storms and power interruptions expected in the summer, I am counting on this unit to give me time to power down

These are great for basic PC protection from power interruptions.
After less than a year and not much use, mine now makes a constant loud unbearable noise that is not the alarm and that I cannot turn off.

One of the plug banks does not have power and the unit makes a loud buzzing noise
My setup connected to this battery which is connected to the wall directly and nothing pluddged in the second slop.-A desktop (include keywork and mouse)-MonitorIt started a strange noise, not the beeping sound... it is like a click sound, like it is switching between the battery and power
On further testing, the unit is now not powering anything up, and is making a faint warning noise that is very soft compared with the typical battery back-up noise these things usually make.
Saved my bacon several time when we had power glitches.
I feel great knowing my stuff is protected from AC line variations as well as power glitches and spikes that happen when workmen are throwing breaker switches down the line

We're a bit out in the sticks, so power flickers are frequent.
Hopefully this keeps me good during power flickers when it rains here.
Always clicks on instantly when the power flickers without shutting my computer off

They keep my wireless router, modem, TV and computer running when the power flickers and through brief outages
The unit is good never had to complain about it.it's good for what I need it for it's reliable.specialty for South Florida with all the power problems we have!I would recommend is 100%
A must have for a Windows PC will save you a big headache if your area is prone to power problems
Note that this thing takes forever to charge itself (think 12+ hours from 20% which was the magical 5 minute cut off on my system), probably to avoid unnecessary lead-acid battery related risks on your carpeted floor, but that shouldn't be an issue unless you're having constant power problems
We either didn't have and power problems or the unit is doing it's job.
