APC Back-UPS® XS 1500VA 10-Outlet Power-
By Diff Guys

Comments about APC� Back-UPS� XS Series; 1500VA, 10-Outlet Power-Saving UPS:
We own our own business and depend on our computer and printer as well as our interent modem everyday. We had an older one of these APC Back-UP batteries that lasted for several years, before it started beeping all the time, so when it was time to buy a new one, we decided to try to get the same brand. We weren't sure where to look for one in our small town in North Idaho But we wanted to looked for the same brand. We were very happy to see that Staples carried this line and it was very easy to find. Thanks for making my job easy!

Great UPS

About Me Quality Oriented
My old UPS got zapped by a power surge (thanks PG&E)). I went out as soon as I discovered that it was blown and picked this UPS.Nearly brainless set-up. I'm pretty tech savvy and this was a breeze. Even a rookie could get this up and running in no time.

#1 product on Security system list.
By Joe "Security"
from Houston,Texas
Used in a strategic manner, we were able to provide the client with sufficient time for controlled shutdown of their system in case of power outage.

DO NOT BUY THIS
By Samantha
from Los Angeles, CA
SKIP THIS and buy another model. I use it to keep my drives spinning in a recording studio. It died after only a year, shrieking constantly even after it was unplugged. The replacement battery is IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND. i seem to have ordered one from a sketchy retailer (Staples and APC DO NOT HAVE THEM) but we'll see if it shows up. Buy a RECENT MODEL for which replacement batteries exist. this heavy piece of junk is a [$] thorn in my side and i lost data after it died too.
Great product; exceptional quality

About Me Heavy Duty User
I am somewhat of a heavy-duty user, since I run game servers on dedicated virtual machines.That being said, this product is perfect for what I need. My entire computer system can be powered with this for 40 minutes, giving me more than enough time to shutdown the servers gracefully.The product is great, and the software that comes with it is pretty cool. It shows the CO2 usage, KWh usage, and many more helpful bits of information such as the cost of operating my system.

After building a lot of redundant-power data centers, I learned to appreciate secondary power.

This backup system is fantastic. I have not had any problems with it taking care of my computer system and attached equipment and that is very important to me as I work from my home office.
