Perfect for my office use, i hold 1 computer, 2 monitors, phone / chargers in this. lovely design and good battery, holds my devices for about 15-30 minutes.
APCUNIT –
Installed and operating, so far, as expected. No power outages at this point, but all good to-date.
Cody –
Useful to have. Haven’t needed it for much, but its nice to have in a random power surge.
Bostonian –
Had a power 1 hour power outage 3 days after my purchase and it worked great.
BobD –
I got this to power a modem in the event of a power outage so I could could make a few phone calls to check with the power company. I believe it lasted barely 2 hours and one phone call.
HappyShopper –
Great buy for the price. Now working from home you need to have a back up and this was just right for what I needed it for – so I get the chance to save docs.
lazydayzlucy –
So far, I’m very happy with this purchase. We’ve had so many storms this year, I needed the protection this product offers.
GuitarDaddio –
Got this for a router, cable box, and electric recliners. Perfect so far.
flowerlover99 –
This product is so good that I purchased another one, so now I have two. Very easy to use and small enough for tight spaces.

I plug it in the wall and it immediately trips my circuit breaker. Tried it in multiple rooms and on GFCI outlets, still the same, trips the central breaker. Garbage, returning.

For an average power bank it’s okay this one’s average for only 2 years before performance goes down
Bbjh –
i love these, my old APC UPS failed RIGHT when this one came, kind of funny but these are great for protecting you electronics
Windows11 –
Excellent to have when the power goes off to your PC
Sparky –
Bought this to run my modem and router during power outages. Worked like a charm. Kept them from having to reboot after the generator kicked in. Perfect.
SkyIce –
I am using this for my laptop and desktop pc enough protection.

Great small UPS for home electronics. I have this connected to my TV and AV receiver, get one.
willied –
Well made and easy to install. Be sure you note the instructions to connect the battery first.

Brian –
Great Battery Backup to use for when the power flickers.
CabinGuy –
Needed to replace the old UPS; the last one is 8 years old and needed to be replaced. I use it at the cabin to back up VOIP and the temperature monitor.
BBGirl –

TabSas –
Works awesome! Life saver when the power goes out!
YChang –
Very useful and simple to use and protect your equipments from current fluctuations. I recommend it.
Dutch –
Cheap back up unit I use on a couple of recliners for when the power goes off so you can move them from the recliner position to upright. Its almost impossible to get out,of them when power is off.
Cooltom –
So far so good. I use this for my cable modem and wifi router. It is a smaller footprint which is nice. I feel I got a good deal at Best Buy.
cxk297 –
Pretty basic. Works at batter backup to hold wifi router power. Never usually lose power for more then 2 hours. Anything more would require different ups.
Mcliger –
After a nasty storm in our area where we lost power for over a week, we had a full-home generator installed. It takes a second to kick on after recognizing a power-outage. I installed this on our modem and router so they never lose power and so we’re always connected, so our laptops just continue running, and we keep on working like nothing ever happened.
Daniel –
Plug in Battery on bottom, plug into wall, turn on. Can’t get much more simple than that.
blue55 –
works well, so glad i got this with the storms we have
disappointing –
great little aps that does exactly what it claims to do.
QSFYCSupport –
This Battery Back up that just works!
APC is my preferred UPS brand I already have 4 of them at home.
Buck –
I have always purchased APC battery backups for my devices. This one is great and it is the perfect size. APC is the best battery backup that I have found. This is my 4th one.
KennethN –
The unit has not yet had to respond to an electrical problem.
llanowar –
Not even a year in and it’s already beeping telling me that the battery needs to be replaced. It does this even when it’s plugged in the whole time. So, if you’re getting this, know that this is pretty much just a surge protector.
Serrano –
Works pretty good to back up my two routers. These are low voltage devices.
Thom –
Impressed with the small size and light weight, plus the four (4) back-up outlets with two (2) surge protection.
It’s been a couple of decades since buying a UPS when fewer plugs were offered, and the bulk and weight was like lifting a boulder.
One curious note, it off-gasses a low electrical chemical odor for the first couple weeks of use. Other than that I’m satisfied with this small, yet effective power regulating device.
Verified –
Great back up for lights but don’t really run anything major. I have several to keep lights running and to be abe to charge iPhone etc if and when electric is out.
user254440 –
seems to operate well. turned off the power and it maintained electronics immediately.
It is heavy and I was surprised it has a lead acid battery. I will have to change it out with a lithium when it dies.
eero –
same old same np so far, good enough for a AIO computer and accessories
itsme –
We needed to replac an UPS that no longer had a working battery since we get frequent brown outs at our new home. I like the slim shape and space between outlets.
ReggieB –
This was purchased to replace an (ancient) APC unit where the battery died. The new one plugged in and started up. Compared to the ancient one, “attaching” the battery is very simple, so that’s a welcome improvement. I’ve not had a power incident yet, but I did a very quick power loss test (I unplugged it) and it kept everything running just fine.
JenniferC –
It is just as described and perfect for what I needed.
JMC529 –
Needed a new UPS for home. Small but powerful enough to work for my needs. I really like the APC products.
RickD –
APC-Back-UPS is a very good asset for my laptop when using as a desktop computer allowing the laptop to be fully charged longer, continue using the external monitor plus supplying surge protection.
kcoleridge –
Awesome battery backup, it helps keep your computer safe from surges with power outrages. Definitely recommend if you like your computer to last.
