Nice UPS for the money
Seems to be working well and is apparently more than I probably needed. I’m only putting about a 20% load on it with everything running. Gives some extra run time in case of a power outage though, so not a bad thing. The replaceable battery should be nice too if/when the battery gives out. Although it may still be cheaper to buy a whole new UPS. I guess I’ll find out.

Great product; poor packing.
First, let me rate the product. I have three of these UPS units in my house now. This series of UPS delivers output power that has a much better approximation to a true sine wave compared to many UPS units without having to spend $400. As a result, the newer PC power supplies are much happier and thus quieter and there is money left in my wallet. The battery is easy to install and change, the display is informative, and you have the option to turn off the visual display when the unit is running. The unit itself is also very quiet. There is an option to connect the UPS to a USB port on a Windows PC (don’t know about Mac) with the included cable and Windows 7 or later will recognize the UPS. You can then program your PC to automatically shut down safely when the UPS is drained to a specified level. I haven’t had to use that feature because we have occasional brownouts and very brief outages, but very rarely long-term power outages. In short, great product. I have three and will buy more as I need them.Second, let me rate Amazon’s shipping department. Simply stated they did a poor job. The last UPS I received was in a box with very little packing material. When I took the UPS out of the box, the case was broken well beyond repair and there were bits of plastic in box that had broken off. I didn’t dare even to test the thing. Surely UPS must have been too rough in handling, but there wasn’t any real packing material either. The UPS didn’t stand a chance. I contacted Amazon and their customer service folks got me fixed up with a replacement, but it was a hassle I wish I could have avoided. The replacement arrived OK along with more packing. How lucky do you think you are?I really like the UPS and wish I could buy it retail. I have my doubts about buying heavy and fragile items from Amazon.

The only brand I buy
APC is pricey, but dependable. I have never had a unit fail on me. The batteries last a long time; however, they are expensive to replace. With some of the older models I have owned, when the battery did fail, the model itself was discontinued. So it made sense to just upgrade to a newer model. Not that you have to.That might sound like ‘planned obsolescence’, but I have been buying APC for decades and have no complaints.

Very nice quality
I’ve owned many APC products over the years (mainly UPS devices for servers) and they have always performed well. This unit is a nice size for a home office computer. The menus allow you to configure sensitivity which is nice. Attaching the battery leads when you first get the unit is a little sketch but once you get the main power wire to settle down then it’s fine.Lead acid type battery, so it’s rather heavy. APC used to provide a Lithium based solution (which I’ve used also) and i tend to prefer that. This model is nice also for the cost. I like how the screen shows minutes remaining.

Support is rudderless and the software is not great
I had a situation where there is a line voltage drop when a printer kicks on. Even with the sensitivity control turned down on the APC, it still threw an event for under-voltage and went on battery. Even getting to this point took their technician a half hour. I was guided through a collection of useless exercises. I am a software architect and I am amazed that they have no good diagnostic tools. So, the hardware is good so far, but the rest speaks for itself.

Easy to use
Works well, easy to use, PC recognized it immediately. Nice display. Alarm will go off if too much power is connected to it. It has a battery and will keep your electronics on after your power goes out, it can then safely save and shut down your computer. It is large and heavy. It has a lot of power. It does not have a smell or speed.

Solid, simple battery, with good support
Had to RMA the first one, and fortunately APC is good about handling RMAs and was very helpful. When you receive it, you need to plug in the battery yourself (and unplug it if you need to ship it back), so expect a spark when doing so.On a mid-end gaming PC this battery affords me about 25 minutes of time without power during light tasks, and about 6 minutes if I’m running an intensive application or game. The Powerchute software helps monitor event history and check the maintenance and status of the battery.I’d recommend disabling the alert noises because this thing is *incredibly* loud, and getting a power surge in the middle of the night for it to screech at you is not ideal. (I’m honestly surprised that isn’t the default MO for this model, considering it’s more for consumer use than commercial use.)

So much better than the older models and the older models were great!
I bought a similar UPS by APC in 2009, and it finally conked out after 15 years. It was no frills, 4 outlets on backup and 2 not. And it would beep like crazy when there were outages or fluctuation. But did a great job and could run my modem, router, and network storage for about an hour when the power went out. I am still surprised how long it lasted. I purchased this and it is lighter, smaller, able to be muted, has far more functions and features, and runs the same equipment for 2 hours. I could not be happier.

I recently purchased the APC Back-UPS Pro 700VA UPS Battery Backup & Surge Protector (BR700G) and am thoroughly impressed by its performance. The unit arrived well-packaged, ensuring its safety during transport, and I found it incredibly user-friendly to set up and operate.Having tried various brands and even an APC model 20 years ago, I can confidently say that APC’s quality consistently stands out. Their devices truly go above and beyond in terms of reliability and longevity. My oldest APC unit is still operational after 20 years, thanks to a simple battery replacement.However, one downside is the cost of original replacement batteries, which I find quite expensive. Despite this, my trust in the APC brand remains strong due to their products’ enduring quality and performance.

Come da titolo questo UPS è a 120 Volt quindi inutilizzabile in Italia… peccato perchè il prezzo sarebbe stato ottimo!
