works like all my othersSeptember 7, 2008 I purchased this UPS for a child going to college. Rather than just a power strip, I want something that should condition the electricity coming from the grid more to protect the devices attached to the UPS.
I have many of these at work. This UPS works as designed. No complaints.
I should have bought a higher power rated model.August 30, 2008 In the month since I have been using this UPS I have had 3 incidents where it has cut the power to my computer, sounded an alarm, and required a reset. The software did not provide an explanation of the cause. My best guess is that my computer simply draws more power than this UPS can handle? I think a better purchase for my needs would have been the 550 model.
Good UPSAugust 26, 2008 This UPS works fine for me. We have finicky power in my building, but I seem to have enough time to log out and close anything important I am working on - sufficient for my business anyway. I have a 19" flat panel monitor and a mini tower desktop.
Marginal!August 16, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Well I should have known better...you have to be running a 15" iMac to get the "27 minutes" of runtime. I get about 3. That's without a monitor. Okay, I've got a pretty beefy tower with 3 hard drives, etc. but I expected a bit more. I will give it the PowerChute software performs well, allowing for a graceful shutdown of the machine. So it's marginal protection, very little runtime, but better than I had before.
RECEIVED USED/REPACKAGED/REFURBISHED???August 11, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This UPS was purchased to replace a dying UPS that I have had for many years. I was not aware that this was a used/refurbished item. There was no reference to this in the Amazon listing. The UPS I received was obviously not new. The actual battery was scratched, the box had been resealed and there was a list taped to the side showing results of QC testing. The 3 stars does not reflect on the quality of the UPS, only the condition as received.
I hooked it up anyway, and was glad I did. The very next night, we had an hour-long power outage and the UPS worked perfectly.
