Keeping the Lights and Computers On
As the demand for electricity to feed our hi-tech appetite increases, the likelihood of power outages and interruptions are also increasing. In addition to problems caused by the increasing severity of storms across the country, power experts are predicting that increasing power demand will soon put most major population centers at risk for power interruptions and shortages. But as you know, power outages can severely damage your electronic equipment and destroy your invaluable data.

The 550 VA Battery Backup offers protection for your computer against surges, spikes, blackouts and lightning strikes. With a capacity of 300 watts, this battery back up is ideal for entry-level computers and electronics. It includes a total of six surge-protected outlets -- four of which include full battery backup. All six outlets offer continuous protection by delivering grounded AC power to your computer and other sensitive electronic devices. The four outlets for battery backup protection are engineered to keep your computer on during a blackout -- for as much as 28 minutes -- giving you plenty of time to save your data and shut your hardware down.

For added performance and protection, the 550 VA Battery Backup features Belkin power management software for automatic shutdowns and alerts in a power outage. The software features messaging, diagnostic support, history logs, scheduled shutdowns, and event management. For fast plug-and-play functionality and connectivity, the unit also features USB ports that offer the convenience of faster data-transfer speeds between the computer and the battery-backup unit. For telephone, modem and fax protection, the 550 VA Battery Backup also includes a 1-in 2-out RJ11 surge protector.

The included easy-to-replace battery can be fully recharged in less than 12 hours and typically lasts two to four years, depending on usage. The 550 VA Battery Backup is supported by a Belkin 3-year warranty, $50,000 Connected Equipment Warranty, and data recovery warranty.

I bought this unit 5 years ago and have not had any problems. It is on its second battery but that is to expected since they only last for 3 to 5 years. It keeps the power clean and shuts down the system just like it was designed. Just remember to properly choose a UPS that's appropriate for the system and/or other equipment you have. This one is only 300 watts so don't expect a high run time when you have a high-end system plugged into it. If you want to keep your computer, monitor, and peripherals up for 30 minutes after a power outage go get a 2200VA unit.

I really can't say anything bad about this product as I don't think I have had a power failure to put it to the test. It is always lit up as it is supposed to be and does it's job effortless.

My previous power supply went out after a year or so and I have had this one several years so I can not complain what so ever.

I bought product mainly to back up power for my cable modem and wireless phone which also uses cable modem. Unfortunately it has a 30 minute maximum time that it stays on after a power failure. I thought my 15 watt (total) devices would stay up for hours with a 550va backup. Contacted the company and their answer was sorry thats the way it works.
