Consumer review (newegg.com)

Fails like bad medical insurance

Most people like their medical insurance when they don't need it. It's only when they do that they find out the problems with it. I've had this UPS for four years. Yes, it was great - kept me up during power fluctuations, provided power for clean...

Worked well in the beginning

Failure modes are poorly designed ; When failed, can't power on ; Constant alarm that cannot be disabled

Wonderful product

I don't mind the weight, it really is a very nice safety precaution for any major appliance. I strongly recommend this for anyone that owns a nice computer or TV. Those things are expensive to replace (especially when you know you could have avoided...

Durable, powers all my major electronics (62" big screen, 36" LCD monitor, very large PC, PS3, Wii, and my external hard drive) There has been alot of construction lately and the power goes out on a regular basis. No matter what happens though this UPS...

Heavy, heavy, heavy! Be careful lifting this thing, it looks small, but it feels as heavy as I am. You really should feel capable of lifting more than sixty pounds. otherwise I suggest having strong friends or neighbors. ;-)

Running strong

Would buy another one today if it had USB support.

Bought one from Newegg several years ago for home use. No problems whatsoever with it, and it is still working great. (I did buy a smaller model from the same manfor work, and it eventually did die, but didn't try to fix it or figure out what went wrong.)

No USB support (i.e. to notify a server of power outage). Heavy

Great UPS

I bought 2 of these just over a year ago from Newegg. I had some problems with one of them, and it took a little while to get it straightened up, but everything has been great since then.

Very reliable UPS and conditioner. Powercom will make things right if you have problems. 1 of my UPS's would randomly shutdown, but passed all diagnostics. They still replaced all the batteries. Both have been running strong since then, and have saved...

Tech support can be difficult to get hold of, and it can take a while to get hold of the right people even after you make contact
