I got this unit because I've had the older version for about 10 years. I hadn't replaced the batteries in my old unit but they would still give me enough time to shut down my server and network safely before they died so I didn't care much...until I moved here. Power through the whole apt seems to brown out multiple times a day and so I thought the old unit had bit the dust with how much work it had to do. New unit is about an inch or 2 taller than my old one but was an easy replacement. It came fully charged and instantly protected my gear from another power drop. Screen is bright and easy to read, uses same protocol to connect to my firewall so dashboard panel was displayed without any tinkering. Since installing, it's protected my networking gear from 10 "events". I also got new batteries for my old unit and strapped it to my server for dedicated UPS. I should have done it years ago and I couldn't be happier that my very expensive electronics are protected! I mean a 2080 super is worth like 5 grand right now, can't have that going up because of brownouts :P

Good price for a good quality.

Best value in the $100 to $300 price range. Set Up Time: As fast as you can plug it in Newegg Beat all other competitor's online prices Runs quietly Normal expected heat generation Has 2 USB Charge Ports: (1 USB-A 2.4A, 1 USB-C 15W) ( A lot of competitor's have 0 in this price range or use older tech) Has 12 Outlets while some competitor's only have 10


Easy setup Clean looking Easy management


Small and easily concealed. APC is a trusted brand in UPS makers.

This battery backup has everything I needed to protect my system. I have my 24" iMac, multifunction printer (in one of the surge protected outlets, 4 external HD's, speakers and modem/router all plugged into it. It offers true sinewave output, which I am happy about as much of the data for my business is on multiple hard drives that I do not want damaged. I use really large files for images for my design business and if they get corrupted due to power surges I am ruined. Again, this UPS makes me feel much better about leaving my computer running all the time and not worrying about a surge or the power going out for a few minutes while a file is writing to a HD.

- The APC DE600M1 Back-UPS 600 VA 330 watts is a lot smaller than some other similar units. - Just plug it in, plug in whatever devices you want on either battery / surge (5 outlets) or just surge (2 outlets), press the power button and it just goes! - I really enjoy the PowerChute software with the Back-UPS. You can configure the utility to safely shut your computer down under specific circumstances (either when the computer has been using the battery backup for a selected amount of time OR shut your computer down when the battery only has a selected amount of time left). Connect the USB cable from the Back-UPS to your computer. Download the PowerChute software from APC-dot-com. Run the installer and you’re good to go. Launch the PowerChute software and you get different options like Monitor System (Performance, Current Status, Run Self-Test, and Energy Usage), Configuration (Options, Run-time, Notification, Sensitivity, and Voltage), Help and Support (Help, Technical Data, Contact APC, and About). While you could use this as a stand-alone battery backup, the Back-UPS’s full potential is unlocked when you use PowerChute! - It has a USB port on the Back-UPS for charging your mobile devices (1.5A).

mounted to the wall easily. everything works as expected


Ease of setup Available capabilities

nice spacing between outlets

The UPS is small and fits on top of my desk where i can see everything that is happening. Has lots of plugs for everything you need plus two usb ports.

Lots of outlets, a "master" power plug can shut power off to peripherals when the tower is off. Fit and finish seem very good.

Works as described, costs less than other brands for the same output.

8 Ports, LCD Read out is fairly accurate, Rack Mountable, Good runtime at indicated 60% load.

Still working after 5 years.

Great size. Easy to install Good software (when you have the right version) Love the screen that will let you know what is going on when you want to.

Simple battery connection and change out, no need to use screws and dis assemble the unit like other brands. I have had these ware out over many many years but they still last the longest and easy to swap out old batteries is a must for me.
