Needed a backup power device for my Dell all-in- one computer. Already using amuck larger APC backup with my larger Dell powerhouse XPS computer with 27-inch screen and three backup drives. This unit is outstanding so selected a smaller and less powerful APC unit for my all-in-one.
While not as powerful it works well with this all-in -one which is less power hungry. Really like all the control feature of the APC RS700 which provides the same level of control as my larger APS unit.

This is great battery backup for home or small office. The only issue that I have is that they did not include the coax cable to run you cable thru the protector. I highly recommend it. During lightning storms I had lost some equipment due to the cable surges. I has to go get one and it seems it is that not many stores have it in stocks.

Easy set up, great information on the dashboard style screen and since I installed it my router does not go down due to current fluctuations so I don't need to constantly reset the router.

Been using APC back-ups units forever. Quality is never a question. Very easy to just plug in and use. PowerChute software is a nice addition if you want to use it.

I have a few of these units one of them I’ve had for over a decade and at some point in time I was able to replace the battery in the unit. So I suspect this will work until the same thing happens I actually purchased this as a back up for my aquarium rather than computer but these things have so many uses nowadays!

I love this UPS. It provides clean power no matter what I plug it into. And the alerts if there is a building wiring fault are invaluable.

Thank you for taking the time to review our UPS. I am sorry to hear that the unit isn't functioning correctly. I recommend removing the connected equipment, turning the UPS off, disconnecting the internal battery and power cord, then hold the power button for around 10 seconds. Reverse the instructions to turn the UPS back on. If you are still having issues please do not hesitate to reach out to an APCbySchneider support team. We offer email and chat services through our support site. For the fastest service visit our chat at https://www.apc.com/us/en/tools/chat/.
