That unit was old enough that I had already replace the battery once, but it still protected the equipment attached to it.

I think it's the best unit for the money

Very affordable UPS for when you need compact unit for your networking closet etc.

There does not seem to be a replacement battery for the unit so once the battery fails the unit is basically junk.

No need to toss the unit when the battery eventually expires, no more than ten minutes with a

Unit appears sturdy and well worth the price

One is you can *NOT* return this to Amazon - they will send another unit and ask that you properly dispose of the bad unit.

First night after full charge, the unit was completely drained

but I like the unit

Would recommend this unit to anyone.

I picked this model because it was the cheapest unit with a display and USB option that also takes off the shelf batteries.

I'd recommend this unit for most home network use.

I've tested this unit to support my 140 watt desktop computer just fine

The tech then asked if the unit still worked after the power drop, which I respond it doesn't - this is why I got an UPS.He then shot back - "Unfortunately it sounds like your unit is defective.

If power flickers this unit goes into alarm and does not back up anything

nice unit plenty of outlets, warning alarm not overwhelming.

Other than that the unit is very nice at a great price.

Great unit.

The unit has the capability to shut off other peripherals plugged into the non-uninterruptible outlets, but only of the UPS itself is connected to a computer via the included USB cable

This unit also has TWO outlets on both battery and surge sides for oversized plugs: this is another feature lacking on more expensive units

I've had several APC small UPS units of the same type and this unit has been reliable

So far this unit has performed well and I have not lost any data

At any rate, I do not know if this unit works well or not, but it definitely will not work with anything that has an active PFC power supply (most newer computers).

The tech then asked if the unit still worked after the power drop, which I respond it doesn't - this is why I got an UPS.He then shot back - "Unfortunately it sounds like your unit is defective.

These are excellent units.

Good unit has more features than I need.

I ordered a better unit on Amazon and will be discarding this unit when my new one arrives

The first couple times I simulated the power being cut, the unit failed

Now if they can offer a competitive rackmount server unit........

This action will kill the units

I've only had this unit for 3 weeks, but so far - no problems!

UPDATE: 3-10-2014THE UNIT HAS MALFUNCTIONED AND DOES NOT WORK

people wondering how powerful the 850VA unit is

this excellent unit resolves that and many more issues like still watching the tv when the power flickers or goes out momentarily.

Strongly recommend this unit.

Love this unit

and I would have thought a defective unit, but my question to their support department went completely ignored so obviously its normal, right?Complaint #3:

the unit held power just fine, no problems.

I don't know how APC would have handled it because I have never had a bad unit, but I feel they should have covered it

Unit is great for small units, but not for bearded dragon tanks :-p

This seems like a great little UPS unit

They fully acknowledged that what it was doing is a malfunction and their unit is defective / faulty and they will exchange it

This unit works as advertised, but be aware that it will not work on generator power.

I also have the CyberPower BRG1350AVRLCD UPS and that unit has been flawless

This is a nice unit - I haven't looked at all the features yet, but I'm happy with this product.

I did a lot of research and talked to computer experts - they said this was a great unit.

However, I am deducting 2 stars: one because the unit is not durable and a second because I believe the experience of buying it through Amazon should also be reflected in an Amazon review

This product tends to have great reviews, and the possibility I happened to get two defective units, however remote, does exist, so rather than one

The unit now continually produces a clicking noise and continually turns the items plugged into the non battery backup of and on quickly...repeatedly

They refunded me the money and told me to throw away the burnt out unit

This is a pretty good unit by all accounts.

Very nice unit - not too big or heavy (for a UPS)
