Much better runtime w/ small load than almost any other UPS

Reviewed in the United States on May 9, 2017

Style: BGE90MVerified Purchase

Most UPS designs are optimized for larger loads, and waste a lot of power when tasked with keeping something like a cable modem or phone chager alive. With a 10 watt load (say, a router), this thing will go for FIVE HOURS (or maybe two or three if you have a power hungry modem -- runtime graph is attached). Crazy! For this type of usage, this will blow the doors off much more expensive units. Bought a second and a third to run my wife's fan and our electric horse fence. So cheap, so useful!

If you need maximum runtime, go with the BGE90m and plan on replacing the battery occasionally. If you need maximum battery lifespan, go with the BGE50ML -- its lithium ion battery will live a lot longer than the batteries in the other two units.

Not for Xfinity triple play

Reviewed in the United States on June 10, 2017

Style: BGE90MVerified Purchase

I purchased this UPS to protect my DPC3941 Xfinity triple play gateway so that I could keep both voice and data running in the event of a blackout. (The battery for the gateway only keeps the phone running) Unfortunately as soon as I plugged the gateway into the UPS I noticed noise on the phone line. I tried a little experiment plugging the gateway directly into the house outlet and the UPS turned off and with it powered on and I consistently got noise on the line when the gateway was plugged in to the UPS, but the line had absolutely no noise when the gateway was plugged into the house outlet.

Update: I contacted the APC by Schneider support team and was told that based on the serial number the unit is out of warranty, meaning the unit I received from Amazon is over three years old. They also recommended moving up to their 350 model for my 14 watt gateway. When I disconnected the UPS and inspected the battery, the battery had a date code indicating that it was manufactured in December of 2014. Needless to say the unit is going back. I will say that APC support was very easy to contact and they made every attempt to be helpful. Unfortunately in this case Amazon is trying to sell an old product that doesn't work well as a new product. What's even more disgusting is they now have it listed for more than double what I paid for it and even more than what APC has it listed for on their own site.

NOT NEW!

Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2017

Style: BGE70Verified Purchase

NOT NEW battery when enclosed material show it was manufactured in 2014! Now almost 2.5 years later I received what no one would consider a new battery. Battery chemistry is such that even unused, even if they just sit they degrade over time, particularly larger batteries. I argue that a battery that is wisely used is better than one that just sits for over 2 years. I cannot recommend anyone purchase this product.

After contacting the Schneider support mentioned in their reply, they agreed with my judgement and sent me a replacement battery. The replacement battery they sent me is over 2.5 years old making it OLDER THAN THE ORIGINAL "new" battery I complained about in the first place(see photos). Sorry to say, my one star review is too high for this purchase.

Before you purchase, you should know...

Reviewed in the United States on May 19, 2018

Style: BGE70Verified Purchase

I live in Florida where the power will occasionally flicker at random times (like when they fire up ol' Sparky). For the past 15 years I have routinely bought battery backups for computers, internet, etc... I even buy these things for friends and family. They make great gifts. Birthday? UPS. Wedding? UPS. Baby shower? UPS. Divorce? UPS. Single mom gets college degree? You get the idea.

This UPS works as advertised. But before you purchase, there are a few things you need to know.

1. The plugs are only 2-prong. This is OK because you should only be plugging in your modem, router and phone base, not daisy chaining zip-strips to run your whole house.

2. The LED light is VERY BRIGHT. As in, "lights up your entire bedroom" bright. It's not one spot to cover up, the light comes out through VENT HOLES. I spent 5 minutes trying to cover the holes where light was pouring out before I figured out I was slowly choking this thing. I don't know. Maybe that's what it's into. Different strokes.

3. It will scare the living bejezus out of you when the power goes out. It plays a loud, 3-second tone every time the power surges!!! It doesn't care if you are sleeping at 3 am. THIS WILL TEST YOUR PACE MAKER.

I've had a dozen of these things over the course of 15 years. This is the first one to ever play a tone when switching to battery. Most every other one has a relay 'click'. I really like APC products, but this is the worst design they have ever produced.

Defective units even after warranty exchange

Reviewed in the United States on September 26, 2018

Style: BGE50MLVerified Purchase

I love the concept of this UPS, so a few weeks after buying my first, I picked up a second. Although the concept is great -- a UPS with a removable battery that can double as a USB power bank in an emergency -- the implementation is unreliable.

About once every 3-5 weeks, the LEDs on the battery go out. This happens with both units, and they each go out several days or weeks apart. When this happens, there is no battery backup; it's nothing more than a surge protector. Removing and re-inserting the battery immediately fixes the problem. Upon plugging the battery back in, the LEDs indicate that it's mostly charged.

Total load is 18 watts on the first unit and 10 watts on the second -- well within the rated output. Both are on shelves in a room constantly kept around 70 - 75 degrees. There is plenty of air circulation (over 6" clearance on top, at least 12" on either side, about 5" in back, and wide open space to the front) and there are no adjacent heat sources. There are no signs of thermal or physical stress; no bulging, no heat marks, no arc indicators, nothing at all to suggest a problem. The unit is never more than slightly warm to the touch.

Despite a warranty replacement, the issue continues. I'm getting ready to send both back for replacements ... again. There's either a design flaw or a quality control issue here. Judging by the other reviewers mentioning this, I'm clearly not the only one experiencing this issue. This is not up to APC standards.

date stamp on battery internal was out of date. ...

Reviewed in Canada on March 31, 2018

Style: BGE70Verified Purchase

date stamp on battery internal was out of date. unit comes with 3 year warranty but battery already expired. I should have complained and sent it back.. but the customer was in need of a power fix..and this certainly kept his DSL router and Android box sync'd during the numerous power outage we get around here. Power in the country where we live is the the destroyer of all things microprocessor controlled.

Two Prong Adapters Only

Reviewed in Canada on May 3, 2016

Style: BGE90MVerified Purchase

I have a small business that uses a number of computers.
Every system has an APC UPS on it.
I bought this specific Back-UPS to run my modem, router, and main switch.
Be aware that the three outlets are two-prong AC only.
This unit cannot be used with three prong AC wall adapters or cords.
This is why I gave it only 4 stars. There is no reason they could not have designed it to take three prong AC adapters as well.

Good value.

Reviewed in Canada on August 28, 2019

Style: BGE70Verified Purchase

Works well. Not compatible with grounded three-prong plugs; only accepts 2-prong plugs. Still, good value for the money. Kept going quite while after a prolonged power outage we had a few weeks ago.

Overpriced

Reviewed in Canada on September 28, 2018

Style: BGE50MLVerified Purchase

Its a little overpriced for a low power UPS and battery pack. It works ok but better off buying a stand alone UPS for your internet and a battey pack separate.
