Very happy with purchase. Had electrical lighting strike that destroyed my tripplite ups/surge. Really did something to my computer and ethernet communication to my gallil. So this time I got a better one and it's perfect
Perfect for my home office. two computers, a printer, 6 monitors and a TV! When the power drops, I have time to save and shut down my equipment, instead of crashing them.
Never doubt battery backups when it comes down to APC. Now installation of the battery was a little difficult but due to my big hands. Once you do that you have to charge it up before you plug anything into it. But you will have back up anytime the power goes out. Already had the power go out and continued to have internet. It was great!
Got this for a friend who had a much smaller one which was always beeping annoyingly in the background when we played games. This one is a beast. It can handle a lot of power and gives decent time to shut down in the event of a blackout.
This is the 4th tower I have purchased as it has saved my edit facility computers as well as our music studios computers.
Plugged it multiple sources to this UPS; Computer/TV/Audio Receiver/Cable Modem. Since I didn't have a power outage to test, I pulled the power. This did not disappoint. No temporary power loss and maintained it's battery life as needed until I plugged it back in from a brief amount of time. Great alternative to a standard power strip, especially when you don't want interruptions.
This backup was so easy to set up! And it gives me piece of mind that when the power fails I can still open my garage door! And most importantly, work from home! No down time during storms when the power goes out, and that happen a lot in a Arkansas
I have used APC backups for years now and this one is just as reliable as the previous ones I have used. It is easy to get set up and running. Failover is flawless. I would expect it to be a little more wallet-friendly for the feature set but it isn't quite overpriced. There are more affordable options. It does the job well and can have a pretty decent load on it. All in all it's a solid addition to any office.
Where I live, we have many power outages. This UPS allows me plenty of time to finish what I am doing and shut down properly. An amazing product.
I work in IT and work from home 100% of the time. I got this to power my equipment and it's been working fantastic. The USB port on the front is an added bonus and super convenient to keep my phone charged during the day. You can't go wrong with APC.
This thing is a powerhouse and works extremely well. It has all the outlets you could need and does a great job persisting power supplies during outages with no downtime. The LCD screen is a really nice touch.
I am a huge tech person in need of this. So when I came across it I had to get it. This backup is a lifesaver for my computers during power outages. I no longer have to worry about losing my work or my computer frying. This gives my more than enough time to save and shut down. I highly recommend.
I have been using APC backups for about 15 years and have never looked back. This is another great addition and is used in our living room setup. It does not last anywhere near as long as it is advertised for but that is to be expected based on load. We use it for cases that the power trips, so that we can shut everything down correctly and safely.
We are using this in our living room as a battery backup. Everyone plays video games and works from home. This has been fantastic when those Georgia storms hit and knock out the power. No more losing progress in video games; no more missed opportunities to save work. We will be upgrading the rest in the house.
After hooking up all of my computer devices to this product and letting it run for over a well, I cut power to the outlet it was plugged in to and it work exactly as intended. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to stay online during a power outage.

I have had this unit since mid-April and it has got the job done on two occasions, but tonight it tripped offline, and I can't for the life of me figure out why. The display indicates only 50% load as I write this review, but when it tripped my computer wasn't being used. I bought this device to prevent this from happening! Any ideas?
I have a cable modem, phone base, and NAS (Synology DS216j) plugged into it. I noticed the NAS causes the load to vary depending on CPU load, fan speed, etc. This may explain the runtime variations another reported. I would like to have some sort of network management to monitor the unit in more detail, as the USB interface is connected to the NAS, but at this price range I see as a great value.
this one only have 179 minutes or less of run time but i like it when it can power a cell phone up and charging it up too but i think as this unit is about the same 1500 and 900w as the other one it should have more power as the other one
doesn't work. battery wires broken
