APC UPS for Home, 1050VA UPS Battery Backup with AVR, 8x British BS1363A outlets, (2) USB Charger Ports, Back-UPS Uninterruptible Power Supply, BE1050G2-UK

Works really well for me. I have used the UPS for my fiber connection, wifi, security network and my IoT network. Yesterday my smart meter was replaced and was without power for 20-30 minutes, but due to the UPS I could continue to work as normal. My network stayed up when the power went off and when it came back. Well worth the investment IMHO.

Yeh I got two of these one for my tv and one for my PS5 and other small electronics stuff..as I’m in a new build estate and kept getting small little power trips..on and off with the power for a few seconds each time..weird..but these have been able to keep things for that duration and have been a good send for my delicate electronics..highly recommend if you care about your tech 👍

3hrs run time with a router, modem and digital answerphone connected whilst constantly streaming music. Like many others I bought this to power my fibre router, modem and a digital phone connected to the router which has a seperate power supply. I live in a rural area with regular short power cuts. In addition our only mobile phone mast seems to go off as well if we have a power cut as its very close by. I wanted to keep a broadband signal so I could use my digital phone and mobile via wi fi calling in the event of a powercut. It arrived within 24hrs. You have to connect the battery which sparks slightly as it is almost fully charged. The instructions make it clear that this will happen. I tested it first by plugging a lamp in then turning off the power to the UPS. The lamp stayed on with barely a flicker. Having left it on charge for 24hrs, as per instructions, I connected my router etc. then turned the power to the UPS off. The router didnt even blink and I was streaming music at the time which was not interrupted. I then timed how long it took for my music to stop indicating no more broadband and a flat battery. It was 3hrs and 3 minutes. If I hadnt been actively using the internet at the time it may have been a little longer. So there you have it. 3 hrs which is more than enough for my needs. I have used the spare sockets for my computer and monitors in the unlikely event that I am using them when the power goes off. The unit didnt get hot and other than the beep to indicate it was in use it ran silently. You can of course disable the beep. Very happy with this unit.

I've done a few power-off tests and no problems.

So far so good no worries with it yet. Easy to install seems like extremely good value. A friend in the engineering services industry commented on it say we've made the right choice buying an APC UPS.

I have had no other experience of a UPS. I needed one to provide digital voice backup in the event of a power cut and the Broadband Battery Backup provided by my ISP was not compatible with the ISP's router and could not support a telephone base station either. This unit looks to be well built and could provide up to 90 mins battery life to the ONT, Router and Telephone Base Station. After just one week all seems to be working well.

Amazing bit of kit. Love that it talks directly to the NAS and can ensures that it closes down in a controlled fashion when the power goes out.

Set-up was straightforward. A bit surprised the battery occupies less than half the volume of the case. Remains to be seen how long it powers the fairly low-demand devices it is protecting.
