Apc Ups Interrupt Power Supply

After several years the battery in my APC UPS power supply finally pooped out. I am more than happy with the length of time, several years. I would recommend the APC UPS to anyone, great product.

This is an excellent UPS for small business. APC is my #1 brand when looking for back up power.

On the second day after replacing my APC UPS battery, the supply to my house "glipped" - it was nice to hear the reassuring bleep and my PC stayed on - great. Hopefully paying twice the price of a "no-name" (made in Vietnam as China was to expensive !) battery ensures it will last for many years.

We've been using APC Power Back-UPS since we got our first computers in 1997. We use them to back-up our computers, DVRs and TVs. We currently have 4 APC Backup Units. They are very very well made, reliable and are outstanding products. One of the benefits of having them, in addition to having continuous power when there is a short power failure, is that they have replaceable batteries. The unit I finally had to replace was approximately 20 years old.

APC Power Saving Back-UPS Pro 1500 is a great power backup. Had no problems what so ever. I really like the way it shuts of everything (if plugged into the right place) when you just shut off your computer and the all you have to do is turn your computer back on and everything comes back on also. Nice idea! I have two Backups and they both work excellent.

I bought the APC Power-Saving Back-UPS Pro 700 to use on my home network including my computers, security system, video cameras and phone system in case of a power outage. I perform monthly tests to see how long my network will stay active by removing power. The 700 meets and exceeds my requirements of supplying power for my network with over 30 minutes of battery backup power.

This is a well built bugger. I like the low power consumption since it's on 24/365. Power supply fits in my UPS conveniently. Little known Trendnet makes good things. This is my second switch of theirs.

The replacement battery pack extends the life of my APC backup power supply for another 3-5 years at minimal cost. Much cheaper than buying a new unit and the battery was really easy to replace. Also, I could take my old battery to Staples for free recycling. No storing it in my garage and waiting for a hazardous waste recyle event. Well worth it.

This is my third backup power supply purchase from APC, with another one soon to be added. I won't trust my electrical equipment (computer, stereo, tv, frig, etc.) to anything else. That should say it all.

I was concerned ordering a 60 pound UPS. The last one I received last year arrived in shambles. The styrofoam casing was in a thousand pieces and the LCD screen was busted. Not B&H's fault. All UPS providers have flimsy boxes. This was slightly better than before. The shipping box was torn in several places. I expected a demolished UPS. However the UPS was an indestructable solid hunk of metal. APC even had a solid metal box screwed on top of the screen to protect it. So the box didn't survive but the UPS was fine. It is a bit noisy but all online UPS's are noisy. I just put it in the adjoining room and ran a long power cable. Problem solved. The power chute software is poor. APC has never had decent software. Fortunately, I don't need it. I will find something 3rd party. Bottom line. This is a wonderful UPS, solidly built, like a tank. As always B&H is great. I ordered overnight and it was late. They refunded the shipping costs automatically. B&H is the best. They stand behind what they sell.
