2.0 out of 5 stars It Buzzes, April 8, 2010

This review is from: APC SUA1000 Smart-UPS 1000VA for servers and voice and data networks (Electronics)

After less than two weeks of operation, the unit began to buzz very annoyingly. (Anyone remember what a 60 cycle hum sounds like? It was like that.) The only way to get the buzzing to stop was to physical unplug it from the wall. I called APC support an was told these units "can have an audible hum" and that any replacement unit would probably give me the same problem.

I returned the unit today, as the noise was driving me crazy. Note: You have to contact a human at [...] to do so as their online return system does not work if you got stuff via Amazon. Let's see if I get the refund.

I'm giving it two stars, rather than just one, because it did at least work with my computer, which is more than I can say for the last one.

5.0 out of 5 stars APC- Battery Backup, January 9, 2007

I have had other APC battery backup's in the past, and the only negative comment about the product is the size and space required for the unit. Given our power failures, brown out, and the high wind and storms in our area the APC does an excellent job. I have not only my desktop PC, but my scanner, printer and digital camera on the system and it has saved my equipment numerous time for the power surges and failures.

Have used this a few weeks and am very happy with it. The unit was very easy to set up. Hooking up the battery was far easier than any other UPS I have ever owned. All I had to do was put a plug in on the back panel. The only thing I dislike about the unit is its weight at 47 lbs which is much heavier than cheaper consumer UPS units.
