The effects of power problems include keyboard lockup, complete data loss, hardware degradation, damaged motherboards, and more, making downtime inevitable. An APC Back-UPS ES 350VA instantly switches your computer to emergency battery backup power and allows you to work through brief power outages or to shut down your system in the event of an extended outage. High-performance surge suppression protects your computer from electrical noise and damaging power surges - even lightning.
This is the older model designed to work with older (windows XP)software. It has less online bells and whistles when compared to newer models but I find it invaluable to protect my older electronics during brownouts and blackouts. It also has less of a chance of getting fried than the newer mdels.
Thanks to a friend I've gotten a dozen APC and Tripp-Lite UPS devices from a company upgrading its electonic protection. Of all the devices I've used, the CS 350 (APCs) have all worked with a replacement battery and have held out for most of this summer - one of them is going through a 2nd, hot and humid summer with the same battery.
If you don't mind getting older models that need new batteries, these are good deals. And if you're not putting your computers, laptops, networking equipment, cable TV boxes on these, you're in for one hell of a repair bill. The cost of repairing one of your valuable boxes will pay for itself by getting 2 or 3 CS 350s and putting them up around the house. Do the math1Read full review
Easy battery replacement and small footprint make this an excellent home or small office UPS. Just note that this system won't last very long after a power failure so, if you are looking for a 'bridge to generator' or 'bridge to safe shutdown' this is an excellent single user UPS. If you need 'continue to run' performance and longevity you might want to look at something a little bigger and if you are a multiple workstation operator this one is 'right out'...
This model does not have an external battery connection but adding a secondary battery would not be difficult for a "GEEK" like me and that would give more time to make the shutdown decision.
Unit came in reasonable time and was ready to work out of the box. After charging overnight the unit supplied AC power for 1.4 hours with a 290 watt load
