APC UPS Battery Backup for Power Outages, 600VA/330W Surge Protector, 7 Outlets, USB Charging, BE600

This unit has been in service for 2-1/2 years now. Still working perfectly. Power is lousy where I live. I get brownouts, flickering on/off and complete outages. The unit handles it perfectly. It has been completely drained a handful of times. Still functioning perfectly. I would not hesitate to purchase another one.

I've bought APC battery backups for years to plug my computer and WiFi into. My old one was on the way out, and I needed one right away. I ordered this and got it the next day. It works well, has surge protector slots, and is quiet. Hopefully it will be quiet when the power goes out as well. Installation was easy: attach the battery and plug into the outlet. And it was priced less than if I went to my local business supply store and purchased the same thing. Thank you!

I bought this model eight years ago. It’s worked beautifully for almost all that time. For about a year, it would sound the alarm, I would reset it and it would be fine 5 months. The battery life is excellent. It finally bit the dust yesterday. It kept screaming at me and would not reset. I am replacing it with the same one since the battery was only $14 less than a brand new unit. I definitely I got my money’s worth!

This will save a lot of wear and tear on your computer if you live somewhere where you have frequent power disruptions, if you install it properly, and are aware of its limitations. It is a small unit and its main purpose is NOT to keep you running for extended periods of time, but rather to allow your computer to shut down gracefully if there is a sustained power outage of more than a few minutes, and to continue to function normally in the phase of brief outages and brown outs. You need to install an accompanying software onto your computer (PowerChute) and set it up so that if the power outage lasts more than a couple of minutes your computer will go through its normal shutdown. If you have your monitor and a desktop plugged in the battery will keep it running for maybe ten or fifteen minutes. I have mine set up so that if the power failure is more than three minutes, it tells my computer to go through a normal shutdown. It will first close any open files and it will prevent the power failure from causing corruption of your hard drive. It comes with a specialized cable that will connect the battery to a USB port on your computer through which it tells your computer to shut down. And it will definitely do those things very well. Don't think though that this will keep your computer running for hours or anything like that.

Bought this specifically to keep my router and modem running during power outages and it does the job perfectly. Living in Texas where grid reliability can be unpredictable, having a UPS on networking gear is just common sense — and this APC unit has already proven its worth multiple times. The 600VA/330W capacity is more than enough to power a typical router and modem setup, and the runtime is genuinely useful rather than just a few seconds of buffer. You get enough time to either wait out a brief flicker without your connection dropping, or ride out a longer outage and stay connected for a meaningful stretch. For anyone working from home, that continuity can save a lot of headaches. When the power went out during a recent storm, the UPS kept my network up long enough to keep my kids entertained until the power came back on (30-45 minutes later). Seven outlets is a nice bonus — 5 with full battery backup and surge protection, and 2 that are surge-only — so you can protect additional gear beyond just your networking equipment. The USB charging port is a handy extra touch. Setup is completely plug-and-play with no configuration needed. APC is a trusted name in UPS gear and the build quality reflects that. The battery is user-replaceable down the road (model APCRBC154), which extends the lifespan well beyond a disposable budget unit. For the price, the peace of mind alone makes this a no-brainer.
