great little UPS for home use
I use this to keep my internet going during power outages. I haven't used any of the advanced features, but the battery backup works great for keeping my router going. also has a surge protection bank of outlets.

DISAPPOINTED!!!!!!
VERY DISAPPOINTED!!!!!!
I ordered the item with my Rewards and expected to receive a new unit, instead I was sent a used item. I feel insulted. It appears that the Dell Rewards Program is a dumping ground for its used products.

Worth the Investment
The surge protection plus battery back-up gives me confidence to protect my valuable electronic equipment in my home office. I currently have 2 laptops, monitor, wi-fi, printer and extras all protected in case of power failure in my area. I'm really happy with the easy access battery compartment so that I can replace the battery as needed. Excellent for my needs.

APC 650 Upgrade
Replaced APC 550 with new 650. New unit is Energy Star compliant, provides slightly longer battery running time. Both units havd 8 receptacle plugs.

Battery backup
Great unit. Used for computer, modem, a router backup and surge protection. Easy to setup. A little on the heavy side . Would recommend this unit.

Able to connect battery after getting replacement unit from manufacturer
Dealing with the manufacturer was pretty smooth, but since I had to do that because the battery was impossible to connect on the original unit I received I’ll dock a star. The wire was too short on the original. The replacement I was able to connect perfectly and is doing its job. I liked this style so that I could fit all the odd sized plugs for our entertainment sys...

Good. Not Great.
This is my 2nd APC 650VA UPS and my 3rd with the same form factor. This one lasted 11 years. It is reasonably priced and reliable for the most part. The design has not visibly changed in ~ 20 years. There are a couple of issues which I would like to see improved.
1. The battery connection is not robust. The "slide on" connectors do not provide a good contact area and of...

Replacement battery, surge protector
This was a replacement for another APC back-up, which lasted several years, but started making a loud blaring sound whenever I used my computer. I had to wear ear plugs, the sound was so loud. Set up was reasonable easy. Now it's in use. So far, so good.
