Snapped one up for the unbelievable low price of $40 at a local hamfest, thinking it would probably not work and would at the least require a battery replacement. Would you believe it turned out everything works like a champ! I already had a smartUPS model 1000XL which still serves me well.

Lots of power; long runtime; good remote management and diagnostics possible with free software

New they are a bit pricey

Great place to purchase replacement battery. Quick shipping too.

if you have a generator you need a smart-ups for any electronics that have a circuit board

There's really nothing odd about this product: it does exactly what it says on the box. It sends e-mail alerts whenever the battery kicks off, it sends signal to computers via Ethernet to shutdown (up to 40 or 50, I think)

Ease of installation; Ease of configuration

none so far

I use this to power the router, NAS, iMac and IP phone in my office at home. It is ESSENTIAL as we frequently have mini powercuts being rural. HIGHLY recommended. I think I get about 30 mins from it under full load. Wouldn't be without one.

To the guy who said you need a 208 volt output and a **50 AMP** circuit I'm pretty sure he clicked on the wrong link or is confusing this model for a different model. I own one and I'm ordering another.

Sine wave output; Supported by OSX

Price; UPSes are like toilet paper; There is nothing glamorous about them and to be honest I HATE spending money on something like this but if you value your data, it's a requirement; I've had this specific model for a few years; My power requirements have grown a bit so I'm ordering a second

I'm very happy with the price and features offered by this rack mount UPS. Have been using for the last three weeks since installing and have had no issues. It powers two servers and networking equipment. The LCD display is great.

The APC batteries work great. I have a set running at the house that are 3 years plus. They have saved my 2 systems several times during outages and power fluctuations. Don't lose a system to a power outage, no problems and amazingly easy to install.

These straight OEM replacement batteries. They are very easy to install and much cheaper than replacing the unit.

Bought this about 10 months ago, last couple of months the card management card just drops off the network, I have to perform a physical reset to get it back on line. Have to do this almost every three weeks. Sad, so sad :-(
