Product Information

Surge only outlets Protect secondary electronics from surges and spikes without reducing battery power used to run primary electronics during an outage.

The Back-UPS battery backup from APC provides guaranteed power and surge protection for wireless networks, computers, gaming consoles, and other home and business electronics.SO I tended to have a UPS on the Boiler, on the PC setup and the broadband router and the most important part of the UPS for me was having a MUTE button on the front so I could carry on during power disruptions without the UPS beeping every 30 seconds driving me insane. The LED status display of the backup power supply makes it easy to comprehend the unit and power status. So recently when I was looking for a decent UPS for my PC setup I found that the Mute buttons seem to have disappeared from a LOT of APC UPS's and I trust APC. You can dim these slightly by holding the power button, but they are still way to bright for my liking.

I bought this simply cause around Harrogate we had a few power cuts and it did annoy me that my openhab crashed every time, so this is the solution, all the “smart home” stuff now is powered via UPS, tested it for 20min lost 18% battery so i am sure it would last about 1hr. I have bought a LOT of UPS's over the years, I lived in Shetland in one of the more rural spots where you would get power outages for short periods on average once every month or so. The bright LED's i can kind of live with, the buzzing noise is frustrating, but this only happens when it switches to battery power mode. Protect secondary electronics from surges and spikes without reducing battery power used to run primary electronics during an outage.for something that will last max 3 years, that's a poor move from APC and doesn't inspire confidence. Surge protection is provided for less critical equipment, while power capacity and run-time are reserved for connected devices that require UPS battery backup.
