JZ: I have one of these hooked up to my DirecTV DVR and during the last power failure it kept the unit running until I could turn it off properly. Without this protection, a power failure causes the DVR to lose its memory and then it has to be reinitialized.

Michael P. Welsh: Tankless gas water heaters are efficient but a power outage incapacitates them. A power outage mid shower forced me to finish with cold water. Ordered this as soon as I was dry. Charged it up and plugged it into the water heater outlet and plugged the water heater into it. Told the wife to run hot water from the kitchen tap and pulled the plug. The UPS started beeping to warn that it had lost power but the water heater kept going. Ran it this way for 10 minutes, long enough to finish a shower, and declared the operation a success. Most tankless water heaters draw less than 2 amps to run the electronics and blower, so that kind of draw is well within the capacity of this unit.

April Victoria: Worked perfectly during a recent power outage. Software is just ok, had issue activating due to software developer server timing out which is in China. Other than that I'm happy with it.

Chris in Virginia: From the Guangming District, Shenzhen, China to be exact. Well built unit and pretty compact. I hope battery maintenance isn't a major pain but I did need a fast replacement to a problematic APC that wants either new batteries or just a power reset. Going to give this one a try and see how it does. Display is clear and pretty standard with Power In and Power Out as the primary display with battery and usage being secondary. Software is problematic. There is no software included in the box. Instructions say to go to their website to download the interface software for the USB connection. The majority of the site is in Mandarin so to many outside of The Republic it's unreadable. You can reach the page to Download something for Windows or Linux but that's not going to happen. For myself as long as this unit does it's job I'll worry about the rest later. I still have a high opinion of this device so far and I like the value. The device is basic in form and doesn't have a bunch of bells and whistles. Although the software feature could use some serious work.
