About this product

Product Information

Protection of electronics, data, and computer software in the home and at the office is critical when the potential for danger approaches from an electrical storm, a power surge, blackouts, and brownouts. American Power Conversion produces battery backup equipment with protection in mind by connecting to an uninterruptible power supply. The APC Back-UPS ES 8 Outlet 550VA 120V provides battery backup when power is lost and acts as a surge protector when power resumes or during voltage spikes within an electrical current. Without a UPS unit, when utility power is lost while sleeping, the power failure can cause a disruption to workplace performance if the backup batteries in the electric alarm clock also fail or do not exist. In this type of situation, the alarm clock may not signal the correct time to rise from sleep, resulting in a late start for work. The APC Back-UPS ES 8 Outlet 550VA 120V provides surge protection through eight outlets, regardless of whether the UPS unit is turned on or off, and battery backup through four outlets when turned on. Connecting a single-line fax machine, modem, or telephone to the data line output will also protect these communication devices from a power surge. For maximum performance, charge the UPS unit for a minimum of 16 hours. The output power capacity and configurable power for the APC Back-UPS ES 8 Outlet 550VA 120V is 330 watts. The nominal output voltage is 120 volts. APC includes a PowerChute Personal Edition software CD as part of the accessories. In case of a long-term power emergency, this software can automatically save files and shut down the computer’s operating system. Accessories also include a USB cable that connects from the data port of the APC Back-UPS ES 8 Outlet 550VA 120V to a computer’s USB port. The APC Back-UPS ES 8 Outlet 550VA 120V gives audible and visual cues regarding its status so anyone who monitors the electronics within a building will be able to react timely to any alarms. When turning the switch from its off position to on, a short beep will be heard, and the LED light indicating the power is on will promote confidence knowing that electronics connected to the UPS unit are ready to be protected. A low battery warning will alert with a rapid, continuous beeping while the same LED light flashes. When the battery needs to be replaced, the audible signal will be a constant tone, and the “Replace Battery” LED light and “Power On” LED light will alternate flashing. If the battery experiences an overload to its available capacity, an audible constant tone will be heard until the UPS unit is turned off. When the battery power is exhausted and the UPS unit is in sleep mode, the audio signal will beep every four seconds until either the power is restored by the utility provider, or the UPS, the unit is turned off. Should a situation occur that involves faulty building wiring, the Building Wiring Faulty LED light will be lit in red. With the APC Back-UPS ES 8 Outlet 550VA 120V, there is no longer a need to walk throughout the house unplugging the television, stereo, computer system, and a variety of other electrical equipment and computer accessories to ensure their protection.

Great Under Desk Unit
The best thing about this UPS is the replaceable battery. Easy to replace, and sold by many vendors. This means years of use down the road. APC's smaller UPS, like the 425VA, make it tougher to do this, unless you have special tools, then, the batteries are not so plentiful. The size is good for under desk use. I am really fond of the separate bank for surge protection, only. You can put your printer, your phone charger, and your desk light on these, and your CPU, monitor, and other critical service gear on the UPS side. At desk, the UPS will give you about five minutes, depending on the load, of course. This is plenty to save your work, and shut down. APC is the premier name in UPS. Why buy less? The saving is miniscule. I'm using mine for an old CPU and monitor, and a MaxNC CNC mill. The mill is about the size of your Mom's Mixmaster. Perfect for the job. We have iffy power in my area. The less than a minute outages don't stop the work. Yes, I recommend this size and larger. I would recommend this as the minimum size APC UPS to buy for any application.Read full review

Excellent Purchase and Investment for use with one desktop PC
The product works as advertised. No rocket science involved so to speak. These products are heavy so try to find a permanent spot for the set up. The software offers simple power plan options. If your worried about testing it on your computer the first time around, like me, my house has taken a allot of power surges, PC's will only reboot so many times after multiple power hits before its time to replace the MB. So after the initial set up, and software install I let the "battery charge up completely"!(24hours). I verified the PC and software recognize the APC battery. I then shut down and unplugged the PC, plugged in my modem and Wi-Fi router and a lamp for the power test, I pulled the power cord out of the wall socket, the lamp didn't even blink. I then shut the breaker off, not sure if the lamp blinked but the modem and wi-fi were still showing solid green and broadcasting, which means they did not reboot. For the technical aspects of this unit. Go to this web site. https://www.apc.com/resource/include/techspec_index.cfm?base_sku=BE550G&tab=models. Check out the power graph and length of "on" time in relation to power output. Hold your mouse cursor over the green line. Most desktop PC power supplies are spec'd for 200 to 250 watts, doesn't mean it's using the whole 200 or 250 watts, then take into account how many USB cables you have plugged in for external accessories, then use common sense. The PC is the only thing I have plugged into the battery back up side. Everything else is plugged into the surge protect side. My PC power supply is 250 watts, so I set the APC PowerChute software to shut down my PC in 3 minutes. Its been 2 months now, the software told me I took a power hit Dec. 14 for 25 seconds, I didn't even know this until I checked 3 days ago. My old W7 Dell 620S is humming along fine. I expect the batteries to last at least 2 years regardless of what the warranty or manufacture says.Read full review

Assured Reliability
This is my second UPS ES 550 Backup unit and if my second experience with the UPS ES 550 will be anything like the first, it will be an outstanding one as was the first. These units are rock solid in performance from my past experience of the last ten years or better. I highly recommend this battery backup system. It has performed well beyond my expectations.

APC Backup power supply
Don't know why I didn't get one years ago. 2 nights after installing it we had another 1 sec brownout while watching TV. These have been happening with regularity for the 5 years I've lived here. The only reason I knew this happened is that the clock on the stove made its ceremonial, power outage, "beep". The TV didn't miss a lick. I purchased one for the TV and one for the computer. I researched UPS's for a week before I made the leap. Glad I did.

Keeps Things Going During Utility Power Interruptions
My best success with UPS devices has been with the APC brand. This model is no different. My APC UPS: 550VA 120V BE550G is compact, reliable and uses a replaceable battery which greatly prolongs its useful life. I'm using this model to protect my TV, Dish satellite receiver and attached hard drive from power blinks and surges. Having even a momentary power interruption turns off the hard drive, stops recording TV programs and movies and causes the satellite receiver to go through a lengthy reboot. This UPS is robust enough to keep that equipment going during utility power interruptions for several minutes while also protecting that equipment and my TV from power surges. For interruptions longer than this UPS can handle, I'll start my backup power generator.
