APC Back-ups
on July 10, 2024
Posted by: marinap168
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good quality product that feels very heavy duty. It has a decent amount of outlets which is nice. It is pretty bulky which may be inconvenient with certain set ups.

Not great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was quite excited to be trying out this awsome back up battery but to be honest this isn't what it claims to be . The capacity is so low that it isn't even enough for my gaming PC which is over 750W while this can only handle 300W max. I plugged in my TV and Xbox to this as a surge protector but it made my devices slower because they couldn't get enough juice, it would only be able to be plugged into my Xbox and even that would be barley enough juice .
This isn't what it seems and I would not recommend it .

Response from apc.comBy APCbySchneider, NAM CCC, August 2, 2024
Thank you for taking time to provide feedback about our unit. We have various UPS products for different power needs. BE500G3 is one of the smaller entry level UPS units with a capacity of only 300W and an expected runtime of around 3 mins at full load (300W). For higher power requirements, we recommend exploring our Back UPS Pro or Smart UPS line with greater capacity. Some of the models are BR1500MS2, BGM1500, and/or BGM1500B which offer 900W capacity and are more suitable for gaming PCs. If you need further assistance or have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to our customer support team at 800-800-4272 and chat service through our support site - https://www.apc.com/us/en/support/. Support is available Monday – Friday, 8am – 8pm EST.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My family and I deal with a lot of power outages, because some of us work from home these outages affect our ability to work properly. Now with this backup system, it lets us work in peace without worrying if the outage will affect us. It kept my stuff powered on even when we had power failures. Thank you Influenster!!

Protecting both system and peace of mind.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a mid-tier PC connected to my living room TV for everyday gaming and streaming . This UPS seemed like a great choice as I didn’t require anything large or overpowered but I still wanted to protect my system. This is vastly superior to a surge protector and I rest easy knowing my system/drives will have some protection in the event of a sudden power outage. Would recommend to anyone with a desktop computer.

lifesaver!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] let me just say It couldn’t have arrived at the most perfect time. I’m currently in Texas and were going through outages here and there. This is a lifesaver and definitely great to keep flashlights on or a full phone of charge. easy to connect and does not take up much space.

Love having the reassurance of having APC battery backup !

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I loved the simple clean lines and this APC-back up feels heavy but compact . I was able to easily conceal it beside my gaming center making it super efficient to set set up! Love that I’m able to save all my files using the battery back up!
