You need to get these!
You know I kinda hate to admit this but the infrastructure in my area is in decline. The power goes out more than ever and we are literally so connected now that many times a a day I think I would rather have internet than water!With this and as we get older we have decided to have a generator installed at our house. Last summer our electricity went out in June. Louisiana heat in June is no joke. Pushing 60 is also no joke. Pushing 60 with 104 heat index may make you not see 61.My wife and I fled to another city. My sister and her husband stayed in their home…. for three days with no electric. It’s one of those things. You always feel like it’ll come back on in another hour… or by dark, by midnight… first thing in the morning.By the time three days went by my poor sister would have been in tears but she was so dehydrated she couldn’t cry. (yes she could have come to Dallas with us but they declined) Everyone affected had every bit of perishable food ruined. So after days with no electric… once it comes on the grocery stores also had no power… then it took a few days after power for them to get deliveries and then the stores were gutted for a solid week. The whole ordeal from power outage to power on to throwing out food to purchasing new food to back to normal was no kidding two weeks. It was awful and I wasn’t even here. We fled. We are very fortunate to have another home in another state. All our food was ruined but we purchased food locally at our other home in Texas and just brought it back in coolers.I say all that to say this. I purchased three of these Amazon UPS systems for our home. We are having a whole home generator installed. These power our modem our router and three of our Amazon EERO modules throughout our home.In the past as soon as the power goes out it’s internet out.Now with these installed the power to those items goes through the battery. When the power goes out the things plugged in continue to work until the battery dies. I tested this. I have ATT fiber internet. I use Amazon EERO (which are amazing by the way) for my router with three additional modules for mesh coverage. My testing concluded that with just these items on the battery the Amazon UPS will give you about 1:45 before the battery dies and you now have no internet. It takes our new generator about 1 minute to sense a power outage, start and then put power back to the house. In this case our internet will never go down. In the past even with a split second surge it would take about 5 minutes for everything to come back online. These eliminate that.These are a very inexpensive way to give you a moment to close out what your working on and properly shut down whatever is plugged into it. Simple plug and play install. I highly recommend.

Solid Performance and Excellent Value
This UPS has performed better than expected for the price. I’m using it to power two micro PCs, a switch, a router, a Blink sync module, and a water leak monitoring hub. One of the micro PCs also monitors the UPS status and remaining battery time, and so far the readings have been consistent and reliable.Battery life seems solid, and while this unit is rated for 450W, it’s important to actually stay under that, it will cut out if you overload it, which is by design. That said, it handles my current setup without any issues.Physically, it’s larger, and heavier, than I anticipated for a 450W unit, but the size does come with a nice layout. The outlets are well spaced and labeled clearly between surge-only and battery backup. Having 12 outlets total is more than enough for most home setups, especially for systems like mine.Build quality feels comparable to my two CyberPower UPS units, and I honestly wouldn’t be able to tell the difference in day-to-day use. For anyone who understands what wattage their gear pulls and is looking for reliable standby protection, this is a great value.

Reliable and Affordable UPS for Basic Power Backup Needs
I recently purchased the Amazon Basics Standby UPS 400VA 255W Surge Protector Battery Power Backup to protect my home office equipment from power interruptions. Here’s my experience with this product:**Pros:****Reliable Performance**: The UPS provides consistent power backup during outages and voltage fluctuations. It has kept my computer and modem running smoothly during several short power cuts, giving me enough time to save my work and shut down properly.**Surge Protection**: With built-in surge protection, this UPS safeguards my equipment from power surges and spikes. This adds an extra layer of protection, ensuring my devices remain safe from electrical damage.**Compact and Lightweight**: The unit is compact and lightweight, making it easy to place on or under my desk without taking up much space. Its small footprint is perfect for home offices or small setups.- **Easy Setup**: Setting up the UPS was straightforward. The clear instructions made it simple to connect my devices, and the battery came pre-installed, so it was ready to use right out of the box.**Affordable Price**: Compared to other UPS units on the market, the Amazon Basics Standby UPS is very affordable. It provides reliable performance at a fraction of the cost of more expensive models, making it a great value for money.**Quiet Operation**: The UPS operates quietly, which is important for maintaining a peaceful work environment. I barely notice any noise, even when it switches to battery mode.**Cons:****Limited Power Capacity**: With a capacity of 400VA/255W, this UPS is suitable for basic setups but may not be sufficient for high-power devices or larger configurations. It’s best for protecting a single computer and a few peripherals.**Short Battery Run Time**: The battery run time is relatively short, lasting about 5-10 minutes during an outage. While this is enough to save work and shut down properly, it may not be sufficient for extended power cuts.Overall, the Amazon Basics Standby UPS 400VA 255W Surge Protector Battery Power Backup is a reliable and affordable solution for basic power backup needs. Its compact size, ease of use, and effective surge protection make it a great choice for home offices or small setups. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an economical and dependable UPS for their essential devices. I will buy this product again.

Current Review –
I haven’t had it for long (less than a month), but so far it works great and is a very good price. No issues so far at all. I will update review if i do have issues. This is my third UPS but first from AmazonBasics. I normally buy the cyberpower one. This one is lacking the LCD screen that cyberpower has but i never use that anyway.

It seems like a solid unit. These are actually built by Cyberpower, which uses the Cyberpower Powerpanel program to connect to Windows.The courier Intelcom delivered this to the wrong house. Thankfully, amazon was able to send a 2nd one out and I didn’t have to fight with them or anything!It can be set up to turn off your pc automatically after a power outage, after it turns your pc off it will also shutdown the UPS about a minute after. Once power comes back on the UPS will automatically turn back on and if you have your PC setup accordingly in the BIOS your PC will also turn on automatically. One thing about this unit is if the battery of the UPS goes to 0% it will not turn back on automatically. But you shouldn’t be draining it to 0% anyway.However, on my UnRaid server, I could not get this functionality to work. I can get it to turn off the server but not shutdown the UPS; as a result, I would have to manually turn on the server. It recognizes the UPS; I tried built-in UPS functionality and NUTS for the server, but neither worked. It works perfect on Windows though. I get about 50 mins of runtime on my PC if idling or browsing the web.Id recommend this UPS as long as your not wanting it to shutdown and restart non-windows servers, for anything windows it works great.

Bought a couple of these to use at the camp, and a great job they do. We currently use them to provide power to LED lights when the generator is not running. We originally bought them to trial and are very impressed so far.We have used them without a recharge for up to 4 days for lighting up the living area and bedrooms. No issues so far. The wife gets mad when the generator runs out of gas and shuts down part way through a movie, this will power her laptop, 150w sound bar and a 40 inch led TV for a limited time. I plan on getting a couple more to power additional devises as I hate the sound of the generator running. These allow me to run the generator long enough to make ice, recharge them and then shut it down.We plan on taking them home in the future to use for the same purpose as at the camp during winter power outages.Definitely would recommend this product. – Be smart and buy bigger (more power by the hour) then your needs require. They are more practical for me then an out priced solar system.
