Product description

APC UPS/Surge Protector

Features

High-performance protection: This protector provides an uninterrupted power supply (UPS) as well as protection against surges and spikes that travel over phone/fax/modem and high-speed Internet lines.

Backup time: This UPS offers up to 65 minutes of backup time at 80VA/50 watts.

Graceful shutdowns: This device offers 550VA/330 Watts of output—enough power for most PCs and an assortment of peripherals. If power is not restored, the included software will gracefully shut down your PC for you, so that no data is lost.

Connections: This device features eight outlets—all with surge protection and four that also feature battery backup.

Alarms: Don't worry about running out of power, this protector has alarms to indicate when the battery is being used, when battery power runs low or when there is a continuous overload.

Works like it should, annoying beep though
Reviewer: Chimpy from Florida on Jul 13, 2008

This battery backup works exactly as it should. When you get a power surge, or your power cuts off during a storm, whatever device you have hooked up keeps going without a hitch. Depending on what you have hooked up, the backup time is up to 65 minutes. Now, that said - be aware that if you have a laptop plugged in, you'll get your 65 minutes. If you have 2 LCD t.v.s and a desktop plugged in, you'll get 10 at most. Still, it gives you enough time to backup what you need to.

One note: this unit has 6 plugs, but only three have a battery backup. Make sure you have your important devices plugged into the right ones!

Great UPS Worked exactly as expect and a good value too.
Reviewer: MikeS from Jacksonville, FL on Sep 21, 2008

I was looking for a USB connected UPS that would work with my ReadyNAS NV Network Attached Storage Server. While this was more backup than I needed it was cheaper than most others that had less power. In addition, it was tested and worked with my NAS perfectly. While I know that my needs were very specific, this would be a perfect UPS for a home PC setup as well as long as you did not have a monster tower with a big old CRT attached. I would not hesitate to purchase another.

APC is always a great choice
Reviewer: ITOldGuy from Staten Island, NY on Sep 19, 2008

I am an IT guy and have loads of APC units installed at work, my house, and my family member houses. Each location has multiple units. Simple to use, reliable, and I would not use any PC or router without one. This was was actually a gift I bought for someone. Works as advertised and APC is a great company to work with.
