Useful and User Friendly UPS
Over the last few weeks I have used the Staples Tech 650VA Battery Back-Up & Surge Protector (8 Outlet + 2 USB-A) to support my computer, router, and home security hub, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience.

A nice little UPS
So far I'm happy with the battery backup (UPS) surge protector! I've tested it as much as I can so far, but haven't had a real world outage to test it with! Mostly pros, with a couple questions/cons.
Pro: arrived well packaged and was easy to set up. Mine came with the battery disconnected for shipping, you just match the red to red and black to back. Easy peasy. At 3...

Small but mighty workhorse UPS
My overall impression of this surge protector power strip has been very positive. It's a solid and reliable solution for anyone needing both surge protection and battery backup, especially in a home office or small workspace.

Does the job
This does the job! It works as described and I like that it also has USB plug ins. The only thing I don't like is that it is large, though that tends to be the case with surge protectors.

Game Changer
This surge protector is such a game changer. Living in California, we have frequent planned power outages due to wild fire dangers. As someone who works from home on a computer this has caused issues in the past.
48 hours after getting this surge protector charged and set up, I experienced my first outage. Thanks to this product I was able to continue on with my work d...

Great power strip with backup power
We’ve been using the Staples Tech Surge Protector Standby UPS as the central charging station for our home, and overall, we’re very impressed with its performance and reliability.
We primarily use it with our alarm system and other essential household devices, including our Wi-Fi router and charging ports for phones and tablets. Everything stays consistently powered and...

Home Office Power Strip
I use this power strip in the home office of my older house. It is nice to have the protection against power surges. Living in a more rural area I have power outages during storms and high winds. When I work remotely, hosting meetings and webinars I needed something to lessen the disturbance of power outages. My laptop, additional monitors, speakers, cell charger, webin...

Staples Tech Surge Protector Standby UPS 8 Outlet
I have to say I never knew this type of surge protector even existed. This is a true game changer for me. We lose power frequently and this alleviates some of the stress associated with that. I sometimes work from home on really stormy days and having this now in case of an outage, I would not have to lose time working due to power failures. I would also try to plug in...

Protect your investments
As a business owner I have owned many surge protectors over the years some better than others but never with battery backup capabilities. I decided to put this product to the test and focus on my more important units that need to be powered like my Lorex camera system and the Ring alarm base. I've been using this product for about 2 to 3 weeks so far I have had only on...

Works well for small loads
Overall, this surge protector power strip seems like a decent budget option for protecting a budget family computer, a printer, and maybe a wifi router. The surge protector power strip's battery outlets are collectively limited to 360 watts, even when the battery is not active. If the power draw goes over 360 watts, an alarm sounds for a couple of seconds before cutting...

Heavy duty for WFH setups
I work from home full time so having a backup power supply has always been a concern for me in case of power outages due to storms or other events like home remodeling projects. I read the instructions thoroughly and plugged my system in overnight exceeding the recommended 8 hour initial charge. After reading the entire manual I felt the guidance on power specifications...

Power Out Not a Problem Here
I used this surge protector for our TV, Roku, tablets—basically everything my kids use to stay calm. When we lost power during a thunderstorm, the battery backup kicked in and Mrs. Rachel stayed on just long enough to avoid a baby meltdown. Total win.
The eight outlets were perfect, and I loved having the USB ports—we could plug in the kids’ tablets right by the TV wit...

CyberPower
The CyberPower UPS system has been a lifesaver for my electronics. I work from home, and all of my kids use computers for homeschooling, so having a battery backup and surge protection for sudden outages has been wonderful. I've spent a lot of money on laptops, so having the piece of mind knowing that they won't be damaged is worth the price of this surge protector. The...

An Easy Addition for peace of mind
This is an item that does what it should- and that’s all it needs to do! Ultimately we used this product to ensure our security cameras were always up and running. We tested it in our garage for a camera we use to make sure we don’t have water in the garage- so the camera being up and running at all times in a necessity. However this has enough plugs for multiple camera...

Sturdy and practical
My first impression of this surge protector power strip is that it just looks and feels like it means business. It’s got some weight to it and just a solid piece of equipment. It feels well made and sturdy like it was built to last. Plugs fit snug and secure into the outlets which I like because we are remodeling our home office space and I want to mount this to wall on...

Provides Peace of Mind
I work fully remote, and while I haven’t experienced a power outage since getting the Staples Tech Surge Protector Standby UPS, I already feel a huge sense of relief having it on hand. There’s nothing worse than losing power mid-workday and scrambling to decide whether to wait it out or head to a coffee shop—especially when outages rarely last that long. Now, I can stay...

to reduce disruption during outages
Since my neighborhood suffered a devastating fire in 2021, in order to avoid downed power lines contributing to future fires, our power company is manually shutting off power during high wind events. It's happened a couple of times each year and it's pretty disruptive as it can take several hours to get the power turned back on. My husband and I are reliant on wifi to w...

Amazing surge protector

First off I wanted to say this thing is absolutely amazing. It’s not super bulky. It’s very easy to plug in and get to working. The directions are clear and simple. It’s a sleek design and all of the plugs and US...
